Henry Goes Green
(Puffin Books)
978-0140345070, RRP £2.50, Paperback
8-10 Junior/Middle
This book - the third in a series involving Henry and his Greek girlfriend Voula - consists of a series of letters between the two, Henry having moved away from Melbourne with his mother and her environmentally-aware boyfriend, Jake. In fact the 'green' theme is dropped by the end and there's little development of plot or character. Jake, in particular, is crudely stereotyped.
