It’s a wonderful piece of writing that improves on every reading.” The Age “A sad tale? Actually not. You’ll be moved by the sudden warm ending, with its lightness and wit, this is a comedy of some depth.” The Observer URSULA DUBOSARSKY was born in Sydney and is the author of over 50 books for children and young adults.
