Maria's Island

She tells us of the ancient and misunderstood disease of leprosy, exploring the themes of stigma, shame and the treatment of those who are different, which are as relevant for children as adults. 10+ <b>A dramatic and moving story set in the same world as the international bestseller 'The Island' from Victoria Hislop.</b>
