But it's not all doom and gloom. Far from it. ''The Boy with Two Heads'' is really rather uplifting. Rikki is very, very funny, even when he's at his bitchiest, and the whole thing has a slightly surreal air that makes it feel quite safe to read. And Mulligan makes a great deal of friendship and the huge source of strength and support it can be.

I think they might also enjoy the beautiful [[The Savage by David Almond and Dave McKean]], which also explores grief in a very moving way. [[Henry Tumour by Anthony McGowan]] also features an alternate personality and is about facing painful situations - but is for slightly older kids.
