Sandra Joyce speaks about her novel and will sign copies.

"The Street Arab" is a powerful novel about a boy from a small mining town in Scotland, whose family is torn apart by the First World War and resulting poverty.

After foraging for food one day, Robbie returns home to find his family missing and is sent, along with countless other British Home Children, to Canada to begin a new life.

What awaits him is more than he could ever have imagined.......
