| Publisher Description: When Willow Farrington first meets Isaac Silberstein she doesn't know what to expect. He's a gnome-like old man who survived a World War II concentration camp, and she's an almost-14-year-old who is just back at school after a four-month stay in hospital with an eating disorder. He has written a recipe and gardening book, and she has to do a talk on it for school. Birthdays, custard, book reports, gardens, families, friendship and fun all combine in this contemporary, witty and moving book. A fresh and uplifting novel based on a true story. |
Contributor Bio(s): Bloomer, Rebecca: - "I'm an adventure junkie who likes to write. I collect pretty things - baubles, phrases, people - and write them into stories so others can adventure with me. I have never, to my knowledge, used the word 'boring' (unless it pertained to what small animals were doing to my woodwork) and hope I never will." |
