From Hereabout Hill

A collection of short stories from master storyteller, Michael Morpurgo, From Hereabout Hill includes: a tale of civil war, where a young girl hides from enemy soldiers in a public toilet; a moving account of two brothers, who, over the years, create a mental picture of their absent father; and the haunting story of a little girl who is swept out to sea while collecting shells on the beach. The stories encompass themes of life, death, friendship, love, and revenge, and each is preceded by a short paragraph detailing the author's inspiration behind it.
