Description
Families? Been it - seen it - done it. Got the badge. And Shaun, I'll tell you this for nothing, it's one big con job.
Twelve year-old Shaun just can't work it out. Why hasn't his Mum come to visit? Why has his care-worker taken his picturebook? And who is the man at the window calling him away? With a bed for a boat, and a skirting board oar, Shaun sets off for the mangrove swamps in this darkly enchanting tale of a lost boy's transformation.
