Dieses Buch ist ein echtes Meisterwerk und hat sich als Yoto Carnegie Medal und Shadowers' Choice Award ausgezeichnet, was seine hervorragende Qualität unterstreicht. Ich kann es uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen!
This is one of my favorite reads. I read it within one day. I couldn’t put the book down. It‘s the story about a girl named October who lives in a little house in the woods with only her dad. They basically live in the middle of nowhere and have to provide for themselves by chopping up firewood everyday and trying to keep the house warm when it was a cold winter. October loved her life of living in the woods with her father. Her mother left when October was just a baby and moved to the city of England. October never forgave her for that. Everything changed when October‘s dad had an accident and fell out of one of the highest trees in the woods and was seriously injured and needed to stay in the hospital for a very long time. So therefore October was forced to live with her mother in the city in leave her old life in the woods behind. Truly an excellent story and very atmospheric for the month of October.
