"Two Quid Kid" is a tale of a young boy's journey from humble beginnings of neglect and loneliness to finding his way in a hostile world.
Edward is a character whose struggles and triumphs will linger long after you close the book.
""I so enjoyed this warm, albeit at times heart-wrenchingly sad account of a boy growing up without a family in 1960s Melbourne. Eddie O'Loughlin's story is vivid social history for people wanting a glimpse into the not-so-distant past.""
Maureen McCarthy, Bestselling Author of "Queen Kat, Carmel and St Jude Get a Life," "The Convent" and "Stay with Me"
""Sometimes funny, sometimes confronting and often moving, this swift-footed tale of family, loss, love and redemption is written with the vivid honesty of memoir.""
Myke Bartlett, Author of the Text Prize winning "Fire in the Sea"
""An inspiring tale of a young boy's battle to build a successful life.""
June Loves, Bestselling author of "The Shelly Beach Writers' Group""
