Recenzje

"Keith Gray is a fine author for young adults, with an understanding of teenagers that rings true. This dyslexia-friendly novella, for any audience, demonstrates that a book that is brief and written in simple language can still be profound ... a neatly constructed page-turner" -- The Sunday Times Children's Book of the Week
