A most poetic ending to the series. Loved the mainly cyclical structures and parallels Gleitzman used within the book (gardening shovel, “precious person”) and actoss the series (Felix having his house burnt, losing his dog, Jumble, the Weasels nearly harming Wassim the same way Felix couldn’t help Zelda).
