Shadow by Michael Morpurgo, is a emotional story about how hard life is for people living in third world countries and the huge impact of war on communities.
The story is quite sad as it reflects many's lives even nowadays. The plot is also quite interesting; it is rather unexpected, so that adds to the excitement. This book is made up of many chapters, each with a different character narrating, which is a new twist on an old idea.

Michael Morpurgo's a really good author, its normally one of the best books in the library :D. Perhaps he writes in a wide range....

I agree, Michael Morpurgo is a great author! The Amazing Sroty of Adolphus Tips is also quite similar except with a cat instead, quite emotional stories!
