Bonnie is scavenging on a beach when she finds a battered old row boat. And under the boat, a bare-footed boy-cold, hungry, and in need of help. The authorities have already been troubling Bonnie and Granda for breaking rules, but how can she leave this boy when he has no-one? Bonnie does her best to keep the boy hidden from the border guards, but as their suspicions grow, she wonders if it''s time to escape the life she''s always known. Under cover of darkness they set sail to the ''house of light'' in search of a new beginning, and a sense of hope.

Industry Reviews

`"A poignant story of hope and courage, thrumming with Green's love of the natural world."' The Bookseller `Praise for To the Edge of the World: "Beautifully written story of adventure, friendship, courage and community and, most of all, it's celebration of the exhilaration and wonder of the natural world."' The Bookseller `"You can almost smell the salt and feel the wind: a celebration of the great outdoors."' The Daily Mail `"The accessible and well-paced writing, the poignant characters and storyline make it almost impossible to put down. I will be pressing it fervently into the hands of KS2 readers who need to believe in the ability of compassion and hope to overcome darkness and fear."' Carol Carter, Books for Topics
