Goggle-Eyes

Kitty Killin is not only a good storyteller, but also the World's Greatest Expert when it comes to mothers having new and unwanted boyfriends. Particularly when there's a danger they might turn into new and unwanted stepfathers...

Reviews

Goggle-Eyes is a winner: witty, sensitive and warm-hearted - a lovely book

—— Guardian

This author is too much of a treasure to be reserved for children alone

—— Independent

Entertaining

—— Teaching and Learning

Packs some powerful political punches...But Blackman never compromises the story, which is dramatic, moving and brave

—— Guardian

Inter-racial teenage love has never been more painful

—— Amanda Craig , The Times

As always, Chambers writes with the fierce intelligence and honesty which distinguishes his work. If more novels of adolescence had this quality and seriousness, we wouldn't risk losing those readers who feel patronised by teenage fiction

—— Linda Newbery , TES Teacher

A complex book . . . resulting in a believable and inviting world

—— School Library Journal
