This book is full of emotional moments and it shows that anything can be done. the memories are brought back in a way that can not be expressed. A really god job done by Michael Muporgo. Another fantastic book.
Another wonderful story from one of my favorite children's authors. Morpurgo tells the touching story of an Afghan refugee boy named Aman and a loyal, heroic sniffer dog named Shadow. A moving story of friendship and survival.
