Product Overview

Jamie Bryce is a lonely, eleven-year-old-boy whose mum had walked out on him. When he and his dad move away to start a new life without her, Jamie decides no one's ever going to know the truth. It'll be easy. He'll never tell anone anything about himself - especially not that his mum didn't love him enough to stay. If someone asks, he can make it all up. He can be whoever he wants to be, invent an entire life.

But keeping up iwth all his lies doesn't turn out to be that simple. And after a curious meeting with a stranger one day after school, things take a decidedly sinister turn...

This delightful allegorical book is good - very good condition. The dust jacket is intact and shows very little wear. The pages are very clean with no interior markings. This is a sweet story with a powerful lesson to teach about lying for children. From the U.K., this book is difficult to find in the U.S.
