Children's author Morris Gleitzman

When are children old enough to learn about difficult things? And what is the best way to explain the inexplicable?

Instead of shying away from what can often be distressing topics for kids, Morris Gleitzman tackles them head on.

He has just published Then. It's the sequel to his 2005 novel Once, which follows Felix and his friend Zelda as they witness the atrocities being committed by the Nazis in Poland in 1942.
