Framed
(eAudiobook)
Heart-warming - a delight Full of jokes and touching moments Ingeniously comic The perfect crime becomes a work of art in Frank Cottrell Boyce's hilarious novel Framed. A little boy turns the perfect crime into a work of art. The perfect crime - it's a work of art, in Frank Cottrell Boyce's ingenious story, Framed, read aloud by actor Jason Hughes. Dylan is the only boy living in the tiny Welsh town of Manod. His parents run the Snowdonia Oasis Auto Marvel garage - and when he's not trying to persuade his sisters to play football, Dylan is in charge of the petrol log. And that means he gets to keep track of everyone coming in and out of Manod - what car they drive, what they're called, even their favourite flavour of crisps. But when a mysterious convoy of lorries trundles up the misty mountainside towards an old, disused mine, even Dylan is confounded. Who are these people - and what have they got to hide? A story inspired by a press cutting describing how, during World War II, the treasured contents of London's National Gallery were stored in Welsh slate mines. Once a month, a morale-boosting masterpiece would be unveiled in the village and then returned to London for viewing. This is a funny and touching exploration of how Art - its beauty and its value - touches the life of one little boy and his big family in a very small town. Frank Cottrell Boyce is a successful British screenwriter whose film credits include Welcome to Sarajevo, Hilary and Jackie and 24 Hour Party People. Millions, his debut children's novel, won the Carnegie Medal and was shortlisted for the Guardian Children's Fiction Award. His second novel, Framed, was shortlisted for the Whitbread Children's Fiction Award and has also been shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal. His third novel, Cosmic, was shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal, the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize and the Roald Dahl Funny Prize. He is also the author of The Astounding Broccoli Boy, Sputnik's Guide to Life on Earth and a sensational series of sequels to the much-loved Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
