The boy with 2 heads / Andy Mulligan


Richard, an ordinary boy with ordinary parents, wakes up one morning with a sore throat. So far, so normal. But instead of getting better, his throat gets worse, starts to swell, he can hardly breathe, and then the unimaginable happens: he grows another head! I thought this would be a funny book because of its title, but it really wasn't. However, it was interesting and absorbing as the author explored what it is like to lose someone you really really love to death, in a most unusual and even bizarre way.

Who would enjoy this? If you are up for a challenge, this quirky book has lots to offer the reader.
