Five-year-old Jimmy Rova is the unwanted child of a mother who
rejects him, and whose other children bully him. The one thing he
can call his own is a pair of shoes, a present from the only person
he feels has ever loved him. When they are cruelly taken away,
Jimmy spirals down into a state of loneliness and terrible loss
from which there seems no recovery. This triumphant story of a
boy's struggle with early trauma and his remarkable journey into
adulthood is based on William Horwood's own remarkable childhood in
south-east England after the Second World War. Using all the skills
that went into the creation of his modern classics, Horwood has
written an inspiring story of a journey from a past too painful to
imagine to the future every child deserves.
