What would it be like to be so disfigured that people either shun you or make fun of you? This is the predicament of the young protagonist in this novel. How he deals with it is both thought provoking and heart warming; and even though I found the "Pollyanna" element a little too much, this is a novel with a wide appeal across ages and interests.
