Produktinformationen zu „My Name is Leon “
Leon is nine, and has a perfect baby brother called Jake. They have moved in with Maureen, who has fuzzy red hair and a belly like Father Christmas. But the adults are speaking in whispers. They are giving Jake to strangers. Because he is white and Leon is not. This is a story of love, identity and learning to overcome unbearable loss. And when we least expect it - we manage to find our way home.
Klappentext zu „My Name is Leon “
As Leon struggles to cope with his anger, certain things can still make him smile - like Curly Wurlys, riding his bike fast downhill, burying his hands deep in the soil, hanging out with Tufty (who reminds him of his dad), and stealing enough coins so that one day he can rescue Jake and his mum. Evoking a Britain of the early eighties, My Name is Leon is a heart-breaking story of love, identity and learning to overcome unbearable loss. Of the fierce bond between siblings. And how - just when we least expect it - we manage to find our way home.
