Feb 2003) LOL! as you can tell by me email I'm completly obsessed with this book,I must've read it 10 times now, I've also read Kits wilderness, Counting Stars, Heaven eyes, and Secret Heart, which was just released about a month ago. All these books are amazing...espically Skellig, the details are amazing, the characters are life-like, it feels like I'm right there next to Mike and Mina talking to Skellig. You MUST read this book, please you won't regret it I promise. (P.S. Heaven eyes is the second best book by David Almond) Submitted by Aine Gallagher (18. Dec 2002) THIS IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!I have just finished reading it in school and it's really sad when Michael's baby sister is dying.The ending is brilliant!I thought at first when our English teacher took it out that it was going to be a boring book as the front cover didn't look very appealing, but I learnt to never judge a book by it's front cover!If anyone reading this hasn't read Skellig do so NOW!I havn't read any other of David Almond's books,but I certainly will now.

Feb 2003) At first I thought Joe having problems speaking would make the story worse, but instead it made it better, He's always seeing things no one else is and when he meets Corinna I think he finally realizes there is someone out there who sees the things too, someone who understands him, and everybody else in the circus understands him, and most of all the tiger understands him...but I won't say anything more, I might give away the book.

But along the way to becoming an award-winning short story author in his native England, Almond was also a "mailman, a brush salesman, an editor, and a teacher." Years after his success in writing fiction for adults, the idea for SKELLIG, his first novel for young people, came to him. That book, about a magical creature who changes the life of a boy, won England's prestigious 1998 Carnegie Medal as well as the 1998 Whitbread Children's Book of the Year award. When SKELLIG arrived on US shores last year (published by Delacorte), it was named a 2000 Michael L. Printz Honor Book, and received tons of other accolades. Almond's second young adult novel, KIT'S WILDERNESS, is quickly earning the same kind of praise, having already received honors in England and several terrific reviews here since its American release from Delacorte in March 2000.

document.write( club );document.write( index );document.write( nl );document.write( wereld );document.write( muziek );document.write( boeken );document.write( fun ); Schrijver David Almond door Margreet Strijbosch, 31 mei 2001 De boeken van David Almond zijn heel geheimzinnig en mysterieus. Maar de hoofdpersonen kunnen de spannende, soms levensgevaarlijke, situaties goed aan. Ze worden alleen maar sterker van de avonturen die ze beleven. Dat laatste vindt David Almond heel belangrijk. Volgens hem moet een kinderboekenschrijver duidelijk maken dat het leven de moeite waard is, hoe moeilijk het soms ook kan zijn. En verhalen kunnen kinderen daarbij helpen. David Almond (1951) groeide op in het Engelse stadje Felling-onTyne. In dit stadje kende iedereen elkaar zo'n beetje. Er werd veel geroddeld en er werden veel verhalen verteld. Die maakten veel indruk op de kleine David. "Kinderen vormen het meest gevoelige publiek dat er bestaat," zou David Almond later zeggen. David Almond luisterde niet alleen veel toen hij klein was, hij las ook veel. Hij verslond boeken over Koning Arthur en de ridders van de Ronde Tafel, maar ook de verhalen van Enid Blyton. Ook kwam hij als heel klein kind wel eens in de drukkerij van zijn oom. Hij keek gefascineerd naar de kranten die van de persen rolden. "Je zou kunnen zeggen dat er drukinkt in mijn bloed zit", vindt Almond. Het is geen wonder dat David Almond van jongs af aan zelf boekjes wilde maken. En dat deed hij ook. Zijn eerste boekjes bestonden uit korte verhaaltjes, die David zelf aan elkaar vastmaakte. Later, als volwassene, schreef Almond ook korte verhalen, maar voor volwassenen.

Kit's Wilderness by David Almond Published by Delacorte 229 pages, 2000 Soul Wilderness Reviewed by Monica Stark Whitbread-winning author David Almond 's most recent book is about the place where magic, dreams and everyday life collide. Almond's prose is elegant, sparse and powerful. He manages to speak volumes with the things he doesn't say, while entrancing his readers with what he does. Kit's Wilderness is a tautly rendered story filled with equal portions of suspense, mystery and wonder. His characters are real, his situations plausible even if somewhat fantastical and his conclusions satisfying. In fact, Kit's Wilderness satisfies on every level. In Kit's Wilderness, 13-year-old Christopher Watson that's Kit has moved back to the town that is his ancestral home of Stoneygate, an old mining town in England. His grandmother has died and Kit's parents want his grandfather's remaining years to be happy. Grandfather Watson worked in the town's nearby coal mines as did his father and his father before him. In fact, most of the town's children are descended from men who spent most of their lives below ground level. As his grandfather tells him, "As a lad I'd wake up trembling, knowing that as a Watson born in Stoneygate I'd soon be following my ancestors into the pit."

I sat with my grandfather in his allotment, held tiny Easter chicks in my hands while he smoked his pipe and the factory sirens wailed and larks yelled high above. I trembled at the images presented to us in church, at the awful threats and glorious promises made by black-clad priests with Irish voices. I scribbled stories and stitched them into little books. I disliked school and loved the library, a little square building in which I dreamed that books with my name on them would stand one day on the shelves.
