This is one of those rare books that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. Through the innocent eyes of Subhi, a nine year old refugee who lives in a detention centre, The Bone Sparrow weaves a compelling story of power, freedom and friendship. Gentle and compassionate, this is a very special book which will move readers both young and old.
