Why are they so naughty?' etc., when there is ALWAYS a reason, even if it isn't always apparent to you. It's also a glance behind those kids who act up in class. the look into Nicu's mind as he navigates his way in a new country and how hard it is to be in an unfamiliar environment and having to learn a new language, especially when no one gives you a chance (as is often the case in this book). Nicu has recently emigrated to the UK from Romania and Jess lives in an unsafe and abusive home.Īs this book isn't officially released yet, I'll just list the things that really stuck out for me: It follows two unlikely friends as they meet and get to know each other as a part of a juvenile reform course due to both Nicu and Jess being caught shoplifting. This book is definitely coming out at the right time (with what's happening around the world right now) and its message is immensely powerful.
