Good deeds, unlikely friendships, and chaotic capers guaranteed!

To aid his recovery from a life-threatening illness Jordan and his family move out of the city for a healthy new start. Jordan's getting enough funny looks as the new boy at school as it is, without his Mum giving him homemade soup every day for lunch! But when Jordan meets a homeless man called Harry, and gives him the soup, it is the start of an unlikely friendship. Soon the two of them begin giving soup to the other homeless people around town and when his sister shares their antics on Instagram the #SOUPMOVEMENT begins-they even make it on the news!

"Very funny and deeply moving, this is a lovely book for children in the early years of secondary school, with lots to chew on..." - BookTrust

"The Soup Movement is more than just the smile-inducing comfort read it first appears to be. Like any good broth, its hearty and simple flavours are the result of the complex artistry of the cook. Mirroring this, the ease and lightness with which The Soup Movement deals with serious - and, at times, dark - issues is testament to the skill of author Ben Davis..." - Sam Creighton, Just Imagine

"...a powerful and emotional book..." - Scope for Imagination
