Product description

Some things are impossible, surely. Like making a Nazi who wants to kill you (and has toothache) laugh. Or staying hopeful when your entire family is murdered. Or making a story about the Holocaust sweet and funny. Except, hang on – when the master storyteller Morris Gleitzman gets involved, anything can happen. This World War Two saga is the story of Felix: a kid who never loses faith in goodness. He’s basically a walking ray of sunshine, and even a terrible war can’t extinguish that. Well, not quite. Which makes this a particularly moving and unusual look at the war, seen through Felix’s trusting eyes.

  • A war story reaching from the Holocaust to today
  • Captures a child’s resilience in the face of horror
  • One of the most heartbreaking tales you’ll ever read
  • By one of Australia’s best-loved children’s writers

This pack contains mature themes more suitable for older readers.

    The book 'Once' is so great and you know what? 'Once' is the reading book of my year group! This is the best! Those stories of Felix and Zelda are amazing but I haven't read all of them, I only read 'Once' but I will buy all the other books. Thank you Morris Gleitzman for writing such great stories! :)
