Owen And The SoldierStock informationGeneral Fields
Special Fields
Local DescriptionOwen and his mum are struggling. It’s just the two of them now and they’re finding it difficult to ask for the help they need. When Owen discovers a battered old war memorial in the local park, he finds great comfort in confessing his worries to the war-weary stone soldier. No matter what Owen says, the soldier just sits and listens, and most days that’s all Owen needs. So when the council make plans to modernise the park and get rid of the soldier, Owen is devastated and decides to put up a fight. If he can just show everyone how important the soldier is, maybe this time Owen won’t be left to cope on his own. DYSLEXIA FRIENDLY!! DescriptionA touching story of loss and remembrance from Lisa Thompson, the award-winning author of The Goldfish Boy and The Light Jar. |
