The Boy from Shangri-La

Egyptian-born Canadian, Farid Rifaat, born of an interracial and interreligion union, tells the story of a boy who learns that his new neighbour has special abilities. One of those abilities will change everything. A story about friendship, trust, and what you might do when you find that you're not like the others. The Boy from Shangri-La is a wonderful read for young teens who are fond of imaginative adventures and reminiscing about their childhood best friends.
