Product Description

Product Description

A comic story set in mock-Victorian times. Solomon Snow discovers, to his amazement, that he is a foundling. A silver spoon was left with him as a baby, but Pa has pawned it. Solomon leaves home in high dudgeon to seek his spoon and his real parents. He joins up with Prudence Pridy, a very bossy girl, and a very irritating child called the Infant Prodigy, who can wind any adult round her little finger. Together they reach Town and promptly meet a glorious cast of assorted larger-than-life characters including a villainous pawnbroker, kidnappers, a child farmer, an awful orphanage and a cheery chimney-sweep's boy. Solly does find his spoon eventually - but the ending takes everyone by surprise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kaye Umansky's best ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, 27 Sep 2004
By ella Baker (London, England) - See all my reviews
I am a big fan of all Kaye Umansky's books but this is by far the best! Solly snow sets out to discover his past by following the trail started by a silver spoon sold by his adoptive parents. There are loads of funny characters and it keeps you interested until the end! I love this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book I've ever read., 4 Jan 2005
By A Customer
It is a very good book. It's definitely the best book in my book shelf. When Solomon find's out about a sercret he goes on a quest. He meets four new friends. It is a very funny book all the way through from the start of the quest to the surprising end.
