Unexpected
Posted by Uma Sheth on 10/09/2012
Surprisingly I enjoyed it. It is "tight" and well written, though I would not allow a child to read it. It is too gory for that.

This book is quite interesting to read. It is written in simple language and very easy to read and understand. I loved the way author Penny Bates describes the friendship between a crow and the boy. It also teaches us certain morals, which we children should know. I would suggest this book to my friends.
