A Small Free Kiss in the Dark: Glenda Millard
War hits Melbourne and a young homeless boy and an old homeless man become the core for a ramshackle family trying to survive. The humanity of people who have nothing is the essence of this book and the poignancy of damaged people who can still give emotionally and materially is central to the story. Beautifully written and sensitively told, I strongly urge you to read it. For ages 12 and up.
