As World War 2 breaks out, six-year-old Jimmy Sweeney is evacuated from London to the country. He is now an outcast, bullied by the local kids and mistreated by the awful Mrs Cribbins. One night a stranger appears in his room. A tall clean boy who brings him wonderful food and other amazing things. They become friends which is good because pretty soon Jimmy is going to need a friend. His life may depend upon it . . . Praise for A Shirtful of Frogs: ‘While this novel is classified for children, I think it has a lot of cross-over appeal … it reminds me of how The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe started.’ – Tawn Anderson, Author of Providence ‘This is the type of book that you’ll find yourself going back to, reading over and over, far into the night. Really, I can’t say enough good things!’ – C.S. Einfeld, Author of Neverdark A Shirtful of Frogs is suitable for ages 10+ |
