"From the very start, he had a good heart." Noticing this and trying to stretch their souls to a little goodness, O'Mahoney challenges them to befriend the weirdest kid in their English countryside town. Like all good altar boys, they crave adventure and live in fear of the town bully. Thirteen-year-old Davie and Geordie serve as altar boys under the tutelage of Father O'Mahoney, receiving tips for grieving at funerals and help out wherever needed at the masses. ![]() The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Winning of the Printz Award for his young adult novel KIT'S WILDERNESS and nominated for the Printz with his first novel SKELLIG, David Almond has delivered CLAY, another quality story that has made the ALA's 2007 Best Books for Young Adults list. ![]()
