The Boy With No Shoes

THE BOY WITH NO SHOES IS THE STORY OF AN EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEY FROM A PAST TOO PAINFUL TO IMAGINE TO A FUTURE EVERY CHILD DESERVES.

Based on bestselling novelist William Horwood's own heartbreaking boyhood in south-east England after the Second World War, this is a triumphant story of a boy's struggle with early trauma and his remarkable journey into adulthood.
Using all the skills that went into the creation of his modern classics Duncton Wood, Skallagrigg and The Willows in Winter, Horwood has painted an unforgettable picture of childhood suffering, personal survival and the power of faith and courage to turn darkness into light.
