Rory and the Balloon Bicycles

Overview

Rory the dragon and his best friend Flora share a love of flying and bicycles, so they are shocked when they discover a mountain of discarded bikes, and appalled when they realise that rust from that mountain is running into the dragon clan's drinking and gardening water. More and more children start discarding their old, sturdy bikes in favour of brightly-coloured, plastic, inflatable, single-use replacements which look great (they even sort-of fly) but pop easily and cause injuries on impact - facts which are of no concern to Evilyn the Entrepreneur. It's up to Rory and Flora to put an end to Evilyn's schemes and repair and recycle all the damaged old bikes, before anyone gets seriously hurt. A magical adventure story for children aged 6+, with themes of resilience, teamwork and sustainability.

Author Information

Louisa is a community worker who lives with her husband and three daughters on the windswept Isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides - where the mist and mountains make it easy to imagine dragons at every turn. Louisa's writing was shortlisted for the Kelpies Prize in 2022 and the Searchlight Prize in 2023. Her first book, Rory and the Snack Dragons originally started life as a picture book text which won the Scottish Association of Writers picture book text award in 2022, but it was apparent that a much bigger adventure of dragons, princesses and tasty treats awaited the reader.
