A fine book, and a daring book
*Michael Morpurgo, author of War Horse, Private
Peaceful and Kensuke's Kingdom*
This book must go down as a brave, serious and successful attempt
to reach out and have this story heard
*Books For Keeps*
A Little Piece of Ground has the same rights as any other book to
be on the shelves of shops and libraries. I also think that by
reading books like this, and acknowledging other points of view, it
will be easier for both sides to understand each other
