Narration To Books Maggot Moon

One hundred very short chapters, told in an utterly original first-person voice, propel readers through a narrative that is by turns gripping and darkly humorous, bleak and chilling, tender and transporting.

What if the football hadn't gone over the wall. On the other side of the wall there is a dark secret. And the devil. And the Moon Man. And the Motherland doesn't want anyone to know. But Standish Treadwell - who has different-colored eyes, who can't read, can't write, Standish Treadwell isn't bright - sees things differently than the rest of the "train-track thinkers."

Discuss Appertaining To Books Maggot Moon

Omg what.. just what... This is the strangest book I've ever read but very beautiful. The writing enchanted me. The story was moving and heartbreaking despite its short length. I just loved everything about this book!

I'd heard good things about Maggot Moon, Sally Gardner's 'what if' dystopian fable set in an alternative 1950s Britain under a totalitarian regime. So many good things, in fact, that I saved it for the last of my Carnegie reading, concerned a book described as 'perfect' by none other than Meg Rosoff could not possibly live up to its hype. Reader, it did. I devoured it quickly, over a couple of days which also involved the usual distractions from reading (work, children) and now I want to read it

Guys!! This book was great!! I don't why I waited so long to read it, it had been on my shelf for 6 years I think. But I strongly recommend you to pick this one up. The book covered a lot of my favourite topics such as family, friendship and equality. The author portrayed so well how it is like to be under the control of a totalitarian regime and how the main character is everything but what this regime is promoting. He is dyslexic and has eyes of different colors, all against their believes

Wow! This grabs you by the collar and pulls you up short and close, whether you like it or not. Standish Treadwell is a dyslexic timid boy with only Hector for a friend and he has disappeared. His world of school and bully boys and headmasters imitates ours to begin with, but soon we realise there is a much darker side. His parents are gone too, there are brick walls and filled-in wells. He lives with Gramps in a street that used to contain "un-bombed houses". The clever words of Standish

Thanks to Goodreads member Ellen Lee for recommending this delightful book. Set in a dystopian past reminiscent of Nazi-era Germany, this story chronicles the slow disintegration of a family by a totalitarian regime.At first read the tale seemed simplistic, but over the course of the novel I was able to become engrossed in it. The book also features an interesting graphic vignette of other creatures associated with despair such as flies and rats.Highly recommended for Young Adults.

This could possibly be my very first review on GRs. I hope that many of you understand my predicament by now: I've been quite caught up in the alternate universe of Amazon. Thus, this is where at least two hundred of my previous reviews are stored. I've found the GR community to be quite forgiving and generous to a fault. I love you all so much for putting up with my non sensical diatribes about not finding the review button on my glow kindle. Mark Monday was one of the first to enlighten me and

I don't quite know how to describe why I loved this book so much. It's a very simple story when you look back on it (which I've been doing a lot of since I read it) but it takes a while to get your bearings while you're reading it. There's also a slight feeling of Daniel Pinkwater, like if Baconburg was taken over by the SS, and I adore Daniel Pinkwater. And the ending! The ending was exactly right. I've never read anything by Sally Gardner before, but her writing is so tightly crafted, so
