Yellow Hat Reflection

Adults Only by Morris Gleitzman

Adults only is a wonderful story about a boy called Jake, who's the only kid on an island that has an adults only hotel. Gleitzman has written a beautiful novel which shows the relationship that Jake has with his teddy, Crusher. My favourite part is when Jake finds out that the hotel was a boarding school and children got whipped and some even died. Another is when he finds the ghosts, Mabel and Gwen, who went there. In this story, Jake shows that no matter where you live or what you do, you can be yourself and don't have to hide away. Reccomended for young and old, I give this book a 4 1/2 stars out of 5.
