Sweet Cherry bags middle-grade adventure series from Rutendo Dione
Sweet Cherry has bagged a middle-grade adventure series in a three-book deal with Rutendo Dione.
Former head of editorial Sam Robinson acquired world all-language rights directly from the author. Presto! Magical Recovery Co., the first book in the deal, will be published on 31st October 2024.
Dione’s series will reimagine fairy tales with a "contemporary spin". Magical Recovery Co. follows 11-year-old Amber who learns that fairy tales are real when the Big Bad Wolf materialises in her home and discovers a mysterious world called Evadne.
Dione said: “I hope readers enjoy the daring mixture of fairy tale magic, physics and high-tech coding! Opting for quirky, lively characters, I was keen to also have a certain level of diversity in my story, hopefully allowing us to resonate with audiences everywhere.”
