The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night Time

Christopher sets out to investigate the death of a neighbour's dog, but his search uncovers much more than a local mystery. Told through his distinctive first-person account, the novel follows routines, difficult discoveries and a journey beyond familiar surroundings. Mark Haddon's story combines suspense with a close exploration of perspective, family relationships and the challenge of making sense of other people's behaviour.

Age suitability and learning: Teens & adults (13+). The sustained narrative and more mature ideas suit teens and adults ready to interpret complex characters and discuss difficult themes. Reading supports vocabulary, inference and literary analysis, with opportunities to compare perspectives and reflect on the relationships and choices within the story.
