4.03 AVERAGE


—> 3.5 out of 5

This is a beautifully illustrated short story centred around a gypsy boy, who comes to live in a small town in Ireland.

I am going through a really rough time at the moment with exams and so I wanted something relaxing, which would help me feel all warm inside.

Mission accomplished ☑️

Beautifully written story with some really lovely metaphors. Illustrations are good and add to the richness and emotional intelligence of Siobhan's characters. Didn't realise the author wrote the seeds of a Monster Calls.

A really interesting book that provided an insight into the traveller community it describes and I really like the characterisation of the two main characters. Not sure how much the illustrations really added for me but the storytelling was beautifully woven.

a sweetly told story about the travelling community. Worth picking up.

really enjoyable for a first graphic novel read

A simple, poignant tale with gorgeous watercolour illustrations that beautifully captures the experiences of being an outsider at secondary school. This heartfelt tribute to the travelling community would be a wonderful text to use for classroom discussions about diversity and prejudice with pupils in Upper primary/ junior secondary classes. Suitable readers aged 12+ I believe this is a must have in all school libraries and I can't wait to recommend it to my teacher colleagues.

Picked this up on a whim and thought it was quite lovely.

Beautiful BEAUTIFUL book. I loved the illustrations and the message.
