Book Review by Rebecca Robertson 10C

Shortlisted for the Clip Carneqie Medal 2012




"A really easy, quick and enjoyable read.  The title of this book – it sounds really intriguing and it gave me high expectations.  The book deals with racism, alcohol abuse, grief and family break-ups.  I found it a little bit difficult to get into the childish nature of the book as it’s written from the point of view of a ten year old boy, but after I got used to it I found it quite charming.  The humour was wonderful.  A rather simple yet effective book."

4/5
