Barney's Headcase (mammoth read)

Markham, Lynne

Livre
Fiction
Roman

When Barney Unwin's hair inexplicably falls out, leaving him totally bald, he can't work out which is worse: his friends at school disowning him, or his mother's terrible ideas for finding a solution. Barney's mum will do anything to get his angelic blond curls back. She begins by trying lotions and potions on him and working her way through improbable medicinal diets, terrible hats and unspeakable wigs; Barney wonders how much positive hair therapy he can stand. Luckily, she eventually realises that it's Barney she loves, not his hair. Meanwhile, Barney finds that his new look isn't all bad - he's quite comfortable with it. When he's given a starring role in the class play, the opportunity for a new image is too good to miss. At the end of the day, Barney knows who the real Barney is, and this belief gradually wins friends and family round. They come to understand that Barney is the same person, hair or no hair.

Livre

Set on a farm in rural Devon, Farm Boy is a collection of Grandpa’s reminiscences and stories touchingly told to his grandson. Joey was the last working horse on the farm, and the apple of Grandpa’s eye. In War Horse, published twelve years ago, Joey was sent away from the farm to be a warhorse in WWI. Grandpa had joined the cavalry in order to find, and fight, with Joey. Farm Boy brings us forward fifty years with Grandpa not only telling his grandson, Joey’s story but also a ‘shameful secret’ which he has held for years – Grandpa has never learned to read and write.
