Lenny’s Book of Everything by Karen Foxlee

Condition: Excellent

Lenny, small and sharp, has a younger brother Davey who wont stop growing at seven, he is as tall as a man. Raised by their mother, they have a roof over their heads, but not much else.

The bright spot every week is the arrival of the latest issue of the Burrell's Build-It-at-Home Encyclopedia. Through the encyclopedia, Lenny and Davy experience the wonders of the world beetles, birds, quasars, quartz-and dream about a life of freedom and adventure. But as Davey's health deteriorates, Lenny realises that some wonders can't be named.
