A Bridge to Wiseman's Cove

The novel “a Bridge to Wiseman’s Cove” by James Moloney is without a doubt, the best book I have ever read. Its starts with a fifteen year old boy with an odd, lumpy body shape named Carl Matt. His mother, a multiple time divorcee, starts taking trips every so often, to get away from life. When she doesn’t return one day, the family life starts to crumble, with no mother or father to take care of the children, Carl’s older sister Sarah is forced to take over. But when the pressure gets too much for her even, there was only one option. Much to her dissatisfaction, their Aunt becomes the sole carer of Carl and his younger brother Harley for the summer, or so Aunt Beryl thinks. When Carl earns a job at the ferry, he starts to really come into his own. Meanwhile, Harley begins to cause trouble, and wants to go home. Even his name causes him trouble. This book is one of the most touching and heartfelt book I have ever read. The ending was very overwhelming, very well written. If I could, I would give it six stars out of five. I insist that everybody should read this book at least once, you will not be disappointed.
