The Last Firefox by Laura Catalan, Lee Newbery

5.0

Charley Challinor has some big challenges in his life. Dealing with bullies, about to finish primary school, he doesn't feel ready to face what a new school will bring when he can't handle where he is now. And then there is the issue of his dads wanting to adopt again. How can he look after a new baby when he can't look after himself? Charlie is crippled by doubt, but one day he bumps into a boy who gives him a task of looking after a magical Firefox, the last of his kind. As Charlie learns to love and protect Cadno, he also learns to love and trust himself. This is a wonderful adventure story.
