Description
Winner of the Jerwood Fiction Uncovered Prize 2015 Twelve-year-old Bobby Nusku always thought that the kinds of things that happen in books couldn't possibly happen to him. But that was before he met Rosa and her mother Val, and before they escaped on a journey across the country in a stolen mobile library. Far away from his troubles at home, Bobby discovers that families can be formed in unlikely ways and that real life can be even more extraordinary than fiction. Though real life doesn't always end happily ever after . . . 'Energetic and pacey, spiked with startling moments of tenderness and superbly controlled. Don't wait for the inevitable film' The Times 'Full of heart and hope and absurd bravery . . . the writer's charismatic, sparky tale of salvation and the stories within stories brilliantly shows how adventure can overtake and transform the most unlikely of people' Sunday Express 'Heartwarming and heartbreaking, sometimes in the space of one page, it's a wise and wondrous reminder just how far a library card can take you' Stylist
