Summary

In Noah Barleywater Runs Away, best-selling author John Boyne explores the world of childhood and the adventures that we can all have there.

Noah is running away from his problems, or at least that's what he thinks, the day he takes the un-trodden path through the forest. When he comes across a very unusual toy-shop and meets the even more unusual toy-maker, he's not sure what to expect. But the toy-maker has a story to tell, a story full of adventure and wonder and broken promises. And Noah travels with him on a journey that will change his life for ever.

A thought-provoking fable for our modern world from the author of the best-selling and critically acclaimed Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.

Good, I suppose

I didn't like it much, but it was better for children than any of Boyne's other works.🙄
