The Unforgotten Coat

The Unforgotten Coat

Two refugee brothers from Mongolia are determined to fit in with their Liverpool schoolmates, but bring so much of Mongolia to Bootle that their new friend & guide, Julie, is hard-pressed to know truth from fantasy as she recollects a friendship that was abruptly ended when Chingis & his family were forced to return to Mongolia.

a surprisingly complex story of the relationship between a local school girl and two Mongolian migrants on the run. Very interesting use of photography to recreate a former reality. A book that I think will stay with you long after the last page. Ages 8-12
