Customer Reviews

An excellent book, sensitively written.

I found this to be a surprisingly powerful book. It is a very unusual kid's book, well-written. At the end of the book I wanted to keep reading - to know more about the characters. The two boys whom the book is mainly about are well-drawn and true to life without being stereotypes. This is probably the best book Eleanor Spence has written. I'd definitely recommend it to anybody of high-school age (or older).

This book was good

i loved this book because it shows the the clashes of behaviour within different societies.
