The Butterfly Lion is a great book. I enjoyed reading it and I recommend it to everyone!
One of my kids in England read this and she couldn't stop talking about it! Michael Morpurgo is an author that uses imagery very powerfully. If you like stories that are to do with flashback, the past, memories etc. Read Michael Morpurgo!
