Publisher's Synopsis
Set in South Africa, these two powerful and thought-provoking stories - "Mr Naidoo's Hundredth Birthday" and "Somone Else's Skin", are narrated by Basil, a Jewish white boy who contrasts the beauty of South Africa with the ugliness of a political system rooted in hatred. Barrington Stoke specialise in books for reluctant, struggling and dyslexic readers.
