The Garbage King

Although quite challenging, I love this book. Elizabeth Liard, the author, has been to Ethiopia (the setting of this story) many times and knows exactly what she is talking about and therefore, writes with extreme knowledge and understanding of the lives lead by children in Ethiopia. Her characters are based around real people and the story is very close to the truth. I think...

However, the trailer looks very comical and I found the clips used in the trailer were the only amusing parts in the film; some of them aren't even in Vampires Suck!
