fire eaters by David Almond

This is a great book by David almond who is one of the best he has ever written. The book is set just before  ww2 and follows a boy called bobby who meets a mysterious old man called mc nulty  who is a fire eater that is why the book is called fire eaters. the two people meet in a market square when the young boy is asked by mc nulty  to stick a huge skewer through his cheek but not until he gets his pay.  this book has also wonwon the Whitbread, the Smarties Gold Award and was shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal.
