Janet Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I felt sure there would be a thread for this already as I'm sure I've seen it mentioned a few times, but I've searched and I can't find it. Once by Morris Gleitzman The Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexiepiper Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Just finished this and came to say thanks for the recommendation Janet as I thoroughly enjoyed it! Such a sad story though, but like you I can't wait to carry on with the story in the next book. I heard there's a third and final book coming out at some point this year too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) I'm glad you enjoyed it. And thanks - I didn't know there was going to be a third. I haven't read the second one yet but will try to soon. ETA: It's out on 6th May and is called 'Now'. Edited March 19, 2010 by Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hi Janet and Lexie I added 'Once' to my wishlist after reading Janet's review and having never getting around to purchasing it, I was pleased to see the two books in one because I knew if I enjoyed the story I would want to know what happened next. I enjoyed the story and did want to know what happened. 'Once' and 'Then' are both brilliant books which I enjoyed. Morris Gleitzman shows the horror of the war through a child's eye while retaining a child's innocence. Felix and Zelda are such lovely and remarkable characters and the characters they meet on their journey are just as lovely and remarkable and they show the courage of people and what you will do to protect your family, no matter how mismatched they are. Excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
