Critics Review
Aged eighty-five, former boxer Napoleon Sunshine is on a mission. Setting himself (rudely!) against every
obstacle in his life, Napoleon leads grandson Leonard and rescue dog Endov in a series of madcap, ultimately moving adventures. It all puts family ties under incredible strain - can they be mended before it’s too late? - The People’s FriendAbout The Author
