Thalidomide Kid

Meet Daryl, a survivor of the Thalidomide tragedy who calls himself Thalidomide Kid. Meet Celia, the new girl at Lewis Lane Primary School and daughter of the deputy headmaster of the local comprehensive school. Together they form an alliance and a special friendship is born. But who is Stephen Arundel and what does he want? A bittersweet story about young love and emerging sexuality. Set in 1970s Cirencester, the story deals with themes and issues that are timeless."...This is a well thought out and interesting story. I found myself looking forward in anticipation to the next scene. The story flowed very well and at the end I wanted more. There are many twists and turns. I did not want to put it down...I particularly loved how strong the character of Daryl was and how this is an inspiring story of disability. Truly inspirational....I highly recommend it and I cannot wait to read more from this author." Amazon reviewer
