Summary
Newbery Award winner Paula Fox's How Many Miles to Babylon? is back after being out of print for several years.Haunted by the loss of his mother, 10-year-old James skips school one day, to be found by three teenage boys who force him into their dog-napping ring. James eventually finds the will to get out of the trap (and return the dog he had stolen), and the observations he makes along the way are timeless. The exhausting bike rides, the scheming boys, the dogs and the fears are brilliantly conjured and tangible. In the end, his story feels as though it's just starting.
