Hold My Hand and Run

Paperback (Oxford University Press Jan. 3, 2002)
Kazy Clare has had enough. She, and her little sister Beth, are being tormented by their cruel Aunt, who has been sent to look after them following the death of their mother. Their father is so grief stricken by his loss that he is blind to the mistreatment going on around him. But Kazy
knows that things have got to change. She has to save Beth from the beatings and abuse, so she decides to run away and take Beth with her. But it will take all her courage and strength to keep them safe. And, once you've run away, it's impossible to go back. Isn't it?

* Meticulously researched; the novel tackles themes which are still relevant today within a wholly believable historical setting.

* Deals with important issues of bullying adults and the loss of a parent.

* Story-telling at its best, with a strong narrative drive, feisty heroine, and vividly drawn settings.
