Beschreibung

It's home: the curfew, the Regime, the thugs, the poverty. He knows the rules. Then he meets Pavel. Scrawny, sweary, with fierce blue eyes, he is a refugee from Old Country. The wrongest person in the whole place to choose as a friend. But when the bombs come the rules of Little Town change. Country or friend? Trust or betrayal? Future or past? Right or wrong: Charlie must choose.'' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***A good reading copy of the first impression of the true first edition in its original dustwrapper. Winner of the2016 Children's Costa Book Award. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
