| Publisher Description: Written with humour and heart, Sofa Surfer looks at what it means to be homeless. 15-year-old Tyler's teenage angst turns to outright rebellion when his family leave London for a new life in Yorkshire. He's angry with his parents about the upheaval and furious at losing his home. With only the dog to confide in, Tyler has no idea that a chance meeting with a skinny girl called Spider will lead him into a world he never even knew existed. Spider is sofa surfing and Tyler finds himself spinning a tangled web of lies in his efforts to help her escape her world of fear and insecurity. Sofa Surfer shows how empathy and action can help those without a home to go to. Malcolm Duffy finds humor and heart even in dire situations. Relevant, warm, and rewarding, Sofa Surfer is about what happens when going home isn't an option. |
