Ostrich Boys: A Review by Amy Townsend

The Ostrich Boys

     Keith Gray has excelled himself, producing yet another world class book, introducing a new idea and fun, down to earth characters. I feel this book is one of a kind, mixing humour and mystery in a revolutionary way! As you accompany the three boys on their journey you get a real sense of their fear, hope and an imperfect friendship.
    
     It all starts in the quiet town of Cleethorpes, where three average boys, in an average school with an average life, shockingly embark on a crazy journey with the urn of their friend, Ross! Read in amazement as Kenny, Blake and Sim vandalise cars, miss buses and make surprising, but true friends.

    To tell you what happens would ruin a perfectly good read. I would recommend this book to an age group of about 10-11 years old, girls and boys. For anybody who likes humour with a bit of depth, this book is a must read.
