8 novels about but not for kids
Jessica
It's one thing to read a story about childhood, and another entirely to really be reminded of what it was like to be a child - to see whe world with the imensity, darkness and intensty of a child's eye. These are some of the team's favourite novels with original, powerful, sometimes disturbing, childhood narrators.
