Felix and Zelda Pack x 5

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 a master storyteller like 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 which spans from the Holocaust to the present day
  • Captures a young boy’s hope and resilience in the face of horror
  • One of the most touching and heartbreaking series you will ever read
  • Morris Gleitzman is one of Australia’s biggest children’s authors
This pack contains mature themes more suitable for older readers.

    Morris Gleitzman

    One of Australia’s, and now the world’s, best-known and loved children’s authors, Morris Gleitzman tackles tough subjects in a funny and offbeat way. He has never set out to write “issues books” and says that his writing is as much for himself as for his readers.

    Awards

    Morris has won many awards in Australia, including the YABBA award for Bumface and Toad Rage, and won the 2013 Redbridge Book Award for After.
