I was pleasantly surprised by this book, which I picked up for my son and ended up reading myself. It was funny, and I love hearing an aussie voice, and places I actually recognised. What was surprising was that it had some real story to it, I think I was expecting boys and monsters and girl germs and toilet humour. But it really told the story of how hard it can be to be a kid, with the hassles of the school yard, and wondering what's going on all around you, and having no power to change anything. Throw in a single parent family and you have a story that kids can really relate to. And it did all that while being entertaining. A great book to get your boys to read. I can see why this book was shortlisted by the Childrens Book Council for Book of the Year. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Henry Hoey Hobson arrives at his sixth school, Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, to discover he's the only boy in Year Seven. Friendless, fatherless and non-Catholic, Henry is not only a Perpetual Sucker, but a bloodsucker, according to his catty classmates. When he's caught moving a coffin into the creepy house next door, it drives a stake through the heart of his hopes of fitting in. His only chance to fight back is the school swimming carnival - sink-or-swim time in the treacherous waters of Year Seven. Shortlisted in the Children's Book Council of Australia Awards, Western Australian Premier's Book Awards and Queensland Premier's Literary Awards, and a winner in The Big Read competition Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
