A touching and uplifting novel of a boy discovering what life is all about. Not one I would pick off the shelf myself but a sensational read. With fantastic dialogue and morals it's enough to bring a tear to anyone's eye. A light read suitable for all ages and both genders I recommend it for all.

I think skellig is is an amazing book as it brings some real life problems in the book, but the idea of a man in the garage is interesting, but i would have liked a little more action

I think that Skellig is a brilliant book. My favourite character is Mina because she is a free spirit. I believe that the book should be enjoyed by all ages. Skellig is an amazing thing because the author David has put so much detail in to him and all of the other characters. These include Dr. Death and Dr. Macnabola. The themes of this book, including, babies, birds, dreams, owls, Blake, bones and old age are entwined and networked to create a sense of overall wonder.

Skellig is a fantastic book you should go and read it. It is for any people to read. The main characters are Mina, Skellig and Michael. This is my best book because Skellig is an oops better not say any more.
Michael finds out about skellig has wings. So if you want to now more go and read the story.

Skelling by David Almond is the best book in the whole world. Its enjoyable book. David Almond makes Skelling a real charter the way Skelling eats, drinks, smells and looks like. I like Mina because shes bossy to her friend Michael. I like Skelling he is the best. I cant tell you what Skelling is or I can't tell you what happens in the story. You have to read the book to find out
