The Lovereading comment:
Haunting, intense and with an incredible twist in the tale this is unlike anything you will have read before. It’s a story of friendship, love and secrets but also of tragedy and loss. It will almost certainly move you to tears but be equally uplifting as well.
Shortlisted for the prestigious 2008 Carnegie.
Shortlisted for the Costa Children's Book Award 2007.
