My Dad was surprised this was a children's book. It was really sad.
This book is a sad book but I finished it very quickly.
My favourite character is Lucy because she cared for Raphealla like she was her own sister.
I would recommend it to all ages of people.
Very sad story that unfortunately could be based on real life. I chose this from the recommended books for year 3/4 but I think it is too old for 7-8 year olds. I wouldn’t want my daughter to have read it at that age. Definitely a book to be read in year 6 in preparation for secondary school that would hopefully prevent unnecessary tragedies.
it was a great book to try
