After
I really like the style, the story written from the perspective of a child with a different way of looking at things. Plenty of excitement and unexpected. ONCE upon a time there was a 10 year old Jewish boy called Felix whose parents were taken away by the Nazis. THEN, his close friend and ally, Zelda, was taken away from him also. NOW, Felix is 80, living in Australia, and trying to protect another Zelda, his grandaughter who is also our narrator.If you enjoyed the Boy in stripped pyjamas or the Edelweiss Pirate series, you will enjoy this great series by Morris Gleitzman.They are short, easy to read and also perfect for 10 year olds and up. They are not only exciting novels, but very educational.
