Rapport om romanen 'The Baby and Fly Pie'

The Baby and Fly Pie is about at young boy called Fly Pie and his little sister Jane. They are living on a tip in London. They see themselves as rubbish kids and are living under a huge protection by Mother Shelly. Mother Shelly isn’t their real mother. She is helping homeless children to survive without their loving parents and a safe home. Mother Shelly knows everything that happens on the tip. She is like a big shining eye. If you do something wrong she will know. Mother Shelly gives her children dinner every day, and teaches them how to be warm when the winter comes. She isn’t giving them a hot meal everyday, but sometimes they are lucky to find something hot among the garbage.

Fly Pie has not always been on the tip looking for food. Jane and Fly Pie were born in a rich family with loving parents. They were all four living in a big house with a lot of expensive antiquities. One day the family was going to zoo. They took the train and were nearly there, when the sad thing happened. Jane and Fly Pie got lost. They were following the wrong crowd of people and could not see their protecting parents. That is the reason why they now live on the tip. Or, that is what they say. In fact they can’t even remember their own last name. Fly Pie and Jane were very young when they were kicked out into the street. They remember that an old lady was taking care of them, but later she was picked up by the police. This story is a fake, but it gives them hope and faith in something better.
