Product description

Dani and Mamo live on the streets of Addis Ababa, fighting for survival in a world where they have nothing. Mamo has escaped from a child-trafficker who has sold him into slavery. Dani is a very different type of runaway, fleeing from his cruel father. Are courage and determination enough to keep them alive when all the odds are against them? Inspired by the true story of an African child living on the edge of destitution, Elizabeth Laird’s wonderful book will take you on an incredible emotional journey.

  • Winner of the Scottish Arts Council Children’s Book of the Year Award
  • A powerful tale of homelessness and inequality, shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal
  • Elizabeth Laird is a first-class writer who often explores topical issues
  • Her other books include Oranges in No Man’s Land and Kiss the Dust
