Level 3 - Robert Swindells


This is the space for submitting reviews of Robert Swindells’ books (just click on ‘Comments’).

Robert Swindells was born in 1939 in Bradford. He served in the RAF before becoming a teacher, until 1980 when he decided to write full-time. He has written very successful books for young adults that often deal with difficult issues, for example homelessness, nuclear weapons, and war. He won the Carnegie medal in 1993.

The Library has many of his books, including Brother in the Land, Room 13, Stone Cold, Invisible, and No Angels.
