They are homeless, on the run to escape the dreadful war, Starving most of the time (Except when her new 'brother' Steals some food from Abandoned property's).Will the war ever end? Will her dreams ever come true? Read this amazing book to find out.

My Review 

I rate this book 7 out of 10(Really Good).An Elephant in the garden was a really hard book to review because it is a book about a nurse and her son Karl, who befriend a lady called Lizzy(short for Elizabeth), who just moved into the nursing home where Karl's Mum works and how Lizzy told them both the story of her life from start to finish. Karl believed Lizzy straight away but it took his mum a little bit longer to believe in the elderly Lady's words. 

 Another Book by Michael Morpurgo

Shadow was a great book about a boy named Aman, He is a boy from Afghanistan Escaping the horror of the afghan war. When a western dog shows up outside the cave where Aman and his mother live, Aman is initially held back as it is not normal for people to have dogs as pets in his part of the world. But when Aman and his mother finally decide to make a bid for freedom, the dog Aman has named Shadow will not leave their side. Soon it becomes clear… the destinies of the boy and dog are linked, and always will be…
