Über diesen Titel
Critically acclaimed author Keith Gray masterfully grapples with the difficult dynamics of a tumultuous family environment in this compelling and bittersweet tale.
When Ben sees a monstrous gargoyle creeping across the midnight rooftops, he’s desperate to tell someone. But Ben feels alone in his new home and is finding it hard fitting in at his new school.
Ben’s dad doesn’t believe him. He’s always angry. He says Ben needs to act his age, stand up to the school bullies and “be a man”. But can Ben find the courage to stand up to the biggest bully of all? And every night the gargoyle creeps closer.

"Ben's Gargoyle packs one heck of a punch. Keith Gray's story – complemented wonderfully by Keith Robinson's illustrations – explores themes of family, friendship and courage, and builds swiftly to a finale that's as astonishing as it is moving." — Darren Simpson
"Ben’s Gargoyle is a powerful story about facing huge difficulties and finding the strength to cope … Gray and Robinson are the dream team; with their unflinching yet sensitive portrayal of Ben’s life. Tense, original and ultimately hopeful, Ben’s Gargoyle is a complex idea told with skill; a deceptively simple reflection of toxic masculinity and finding the inner strength to fight it." — Lesley Parr
"Keith Gray pulls no punches in this gloriously dark tale of upheaval, fear and danger. Ben's struggles are carved from granite in tense and weighty lines, tapping into the bedrock of what masculinity means. A fine gothic fable about how to face the monsters that lurk both inside and out." — Luke Palmer
