A stunning novel of World War 1. It is so absorbing and atmospheric that you will want to keep reading to the end. Told through the voice of a young soldier it captures in 24 hours the memories of his life - with the harsh realisation that he is also facing an unknown future!
Deserved to last as an insight into the First World War in the same way as, say, The Silver Sword or Goodnight Mr Tom." It was the Winner of the Blue Peter Book Award 2005 in the UK, the prestigious Di Cento Prize and the I Primo Bibliotechi di Roma (The Prize of the Libraries of Rome) in Italy, and Belgium's Le Prix Farniente and Le Prix Ado-Lisant. Short listed for the Carnegie Medal 2003, Whitbread Award 2003, and Winner of the Red House Book Award 2004. Winner of the California Young Reader Medal in the Young Adult category for 2007-2008.
