“My Sister Lives On The Mantelpiece”

My Sister Lives On The Mantelpiece – Annabel Pitcher

Jamie’s sister does indeed “live” on the mantlepiece, but this book is far from depressing.  The author deals with loss and change in a humorous way, as 10 year old Spiderman-loving Jamie seeks to put his family back together and survive life in a new school and a new town. His friendship with “Sunya” and their epic battles against the school yard bullies will remind you of your days at elementary school. Suitable for grades 8-10.
