Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Washed up on the shores of a remote island, 2 kids from cultures half a world apart have to learn to get along and survive. This is a terrific adventure filled with Pratchett's own brand of comic satire as he explores various topical issues, and there's a very rude parrot too. An audio edition is also available. Ages: 12+.

Publisher's description:

Finding himself alone on a desert island when everything and everyone he knows and loved has been washed away in a huge storm, Mau is the last surviving member of his nation. He's also completely alone - or so he thinks until he finds the ghost girl. This children's novel encompasses the themes of death and nationhood.
