Rusty Runs Away - Ruskin Bond

A fantastic collection of Rusty's teenage escapades! Rusty's world is turned topsy-turvy when his father and grandmother pass away in quick succession. The twelve-year-old is sent away to boarding school by his guardian, Mr Harrison. Restlessness, coupled with an ambition to travel the world, compels him to run away from his rather humdrum life at school. But the plan fails, and he is soon back in Dehra, with his strict guardian. Rusty is now seventeen. He rebels and leaves home again, this time for good. This gorgeous re-illustrated edition of Rusty Runs Away lends a fresh lease of life to Bond's classic story about adolescence.
