Description

The Great Blue Yonder by Alex Shearer is the quirky, gentle journey of a boy stuck between looking back, and moving on.

You ll be sorry when I m dead.

That s what Harry said to his sister, before the incident with the lorry. And now he is just that – dead.

And he wishes more than anything that he hadn t said it. He wishes he could say sorry. And say goodbye to everyone he left behind – his mum, his dad, his best friend Pete. . . even Jelly Donkins, the class bully.

Now he s on the Other Side, waiting to move on to the Great Blue Yonder. But he doesn t know how to get there – until he meets Arthur, a small boy in a top hat who s been dead for years, who helps him say goodbye. . .
