I really enjoyed your book, it made me think about other people in other countries more. Can't wait to read ILLEGAL.

I very much enjoyed Hidden  and  if I was you I would sign it for every book in every school so they can remember who wrote the book and how amazing that person  is at writing such an amazing book. I found it so interesting.This is a book review for Hidden.

I very much enjoyed Hidden and it made me think about asylum seekers and refugees. Alix and Samir inspired me very much!

I liked this book a lot as it has a very original subject which I hardly knew about. I would recommend it to any friend.

Amazing book, I would recommend it to everyone. A real page turner. Go and buy it now.

Hidden addresses one of the most current debates in the UK today - immigration and asylum seekers. Miriam addresses this with flare and to top it all its based on our home town - Hayling Island. Miriam Halahmy is truly a magnificent author. She makes you think and think.

How did you link an Iraqi young man called Mohammed to a relatively unheard of island called Hayling?

I am not much of a reader but I read pretty much the whole book in a day....The story was really good!

Although I am more into dark and mysterious books I thought that this book gave me an insight into a topic I do not know well. I do know Hayling very well and I was wondering whether this was based on a true story?

Jesse, 14 years

No Jesse, this is not a true story, but there are many true bits to it, as told to me by asylum seekers. I am glad you enjoyed the book.
