Graham J. Sharpe

I enjoyed reading PURPLE. It took me a while to figure out what was happening. Imagine a Purple cloud storm that removes everyone aged 18-65. Hmmm, no one to nag you, or tell you to clean your room. No one to tuck you in at night, or make chicken soup for you when you're feeling badly.

We traverse this world (mainly in London) 6 months after the storm. We see things through Ellie's eyes. Ellie is just 15 years old, but forced through these bizarre circumstances to act more like a grown up. All the children have to suddenly grow up and literally run the world. We see Ellie and her friends grow up very quickly. They face a very adult world. Ellie has the benefit of meeting a bizarre group of people. You, as the reader, will love some of these characters.

Mr. Sharpe is an amazing writer. He has managed to make these characters believable and lovable. The social issues faced by these kids are masterfully described by Mr. Sharpe. You will laugh, love and cry with these characters.

I recommend PURPLE for kids of all ages.… (plus d'informations)
