Читать книгу Sharkey’s Son - Gillian D’achada - Страница 3

I would like to dedicate this book to my oldest daughter,

Lissa, who is now twenty-four, but who was even younger

than Grant, Smiler and Ally when we first discovered,

and explored, the Langebaan lagoon together.

One day, while sunbathing in a hidden cove, we came across a dead

crab. Lissa immediately dug a hole for it and buried it. “Why are you

doing that?” I asked her. “So it can go to heaven”, she replied.

My prayer for every boy and girl who reads Sharkey’s Son is that,

one day, when all their adventures on earth are over, they too

will go to heaven. I hear it’s a fantastic place.
