About this listen

 It's the summer holidays and 11-year-old loner, Seymour, lodged with a fussy guardian in an inner-city suburb, is bored and unhappy in his confined world. By chance he meets Angie - beautiful, charismatic Angie. He is bewitched, and his world is opened as she takes him on unexpected holiday outings and shopping sprees. Angie, however, is not what she seems. Angie is using drugs...©2003 Bolinda Publishing Pyt Ltd by arrangement with Penguin Group (Australia); 1990 Robin Klein (P)2000 Bolinda Publishing Contemporary Fiction Difficult Situations Family & Relationships Friendship Genre Fiction Literature & Fiction Parenting & Families Relationships Teenagers

Editorial reviews

For eleven-year-olds like Seymour, there is no better time than summer holiday. Unfortunately, little Seymour is a bit of a loner and stuck with a fussy guardian, so this summer is shaping up to be a real bore. A chance meeting with the enchanting teenager Angie, however, looks to turn everything around. Performed with an incredible energy by veteran actor, Dino Marnika, Came Back to Show You I Could Fly is the heartfelt story of two unlikely friends and the secret one of them harbors that could send everything spiraling out of control.
