Description
"The classic children's novel of a teenage girl and her special needs brother is "quite simply, a wonderfully moving story about the power of love" ( Times Educational Supplement ). Twelve-year-old Anna Peacock is looking forward to the birth of her baby brother. But when Ben is born with a rare condition, it is clear that he will never be like other children. Though Anna loves him immensely, she finds herself unable to tell her friends the truth about Ben's disability. Over the years of Ben's tragically short life, Anna's perspective matures and changes. When the truth does come out, it leads not to the ridicule she once expected, but to sympathy and understanding. Highly commended for the Carnegie Medal, Elizabeth Laird's Red Sky in the Morning is a heartfelt tale of love, loss, family and friendship. "A wry first-person narrative.... Discussion of handicaps, death and bereavement, and religious belief are carefully integrated into the story." -- School Library Journal"--,Provided by Freading.
