JaseyBoi Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 when i was in secondary school we were made to read a series of book's about a young lad who was either on the run or simply a runaway (so good a book i cannae actually mind)..... he also finds himself a leapard (again not sure if it was a leapard but it was a big cat)..... Now on reading this you would think "aye he musta loved those books cannae mind the plot cannae mind whom wrote em" ..Please if anyone else read these at school and can remeber the name of them and possibly the author id be most grateful......Im sure theres 3 books in the series but again i could be wrong Also if it helps the 3rd book sees him settling down on some lairds ground and becoming one of the family lol (i think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larsen B Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Possibly "I Am David" by Anne Holm?Our class read that at primary school. Does he not escape from a concentration camp in that? At school we made concentration camps out of meccano as the work we did in relation to the book. Very odd. Not sure there was anything about a cheetah in the book.
