This review is from: A Year and a Day (Candlewick Treasures) (Hardcover)
William Mayne writes in a spare and poetic style, which may take some getting used to, but which I believe truly reflects the workings of a child's mind. The story here is of of two young English girls who find a strange boy near their village. The village witch informs them that the boy will only stay a year and a day. At the end of that time, the boy is gone, but he will stay in the heart of the family forever.

This is a beautifully designed small volume, nicely illustrated, from a wonderful series of books.
