When Mamo's mother dies, he is abandoned in the shanties of Addis Ababa. Stolen by a child-trafficker and sold to a farmer, he is cruelly treated. Escaping back to the city, he meets another, very different runaway. Dani is rich, educated - and fleeing his tyrannical father. Together they join a gang of homeless street boys who survive only by mutual bonds of trust and total dependence on each other.","brand":"Scotia Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41039240560823,"sku":"9781509802951","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5629\/7143\/files\/9781509802951.jpg?v=1717487582","url":"https:\/\/www.scotiabooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781509802951","provider":"scotia-books-online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
