The Loblolly Boy by James Norcliffe


“The Great House was a place for abandoned kids to be dumped. Some kids were orphaned; others were rejects. I’m not sure what I was . Probably a reject. “
Michael is bullied by the other boys at the Great House and mistreated by the Keepers... until the day he meets the Loblolly Boy and from one moment to the next, becomes invisible and learns to fly. His simple choice to become a Loblolly Boy , however, has very complicated consequences
In this magical , often sad story, Michael learns that getting what we want most doesn’t always make us happy.
