I have plenty of teaching resources available too if anyone is interested in teaching this to their students. I thought I would be bored teaching this over and over, but actually enjoying it more each time. Love the novel, the voice, the topic (Zimbabwe, witchcraft, immigration, homelessness, racism and so forth) and the depth of material available. Review 2: Teaching this to Year 9 students to teach them pre-GCSE skills of evidence, inference and deeper reading. They can read books that have greater depth and are more moving. I would say that this is better for maybe a grade five/six novel study, but not really for high school students. If you are interested in books about this that will move you and be informative, t. It did have some interesting themes and have a lot of information to do with the struggle, but I do think there are better books if you are looking for a book that really moves you. To be honest, I wouldn't recommend this book for anyone's personal reading. about the author Michael Williams is the author of the highly praised young adult novel Crocodile Burning as well as several other. There was only page having anything to do with drugs and gang/street life. written, Now Is the Time For Running is a staggering story of survival that follows Deo and his mentally handicapped older brother on a transformative journey that will stick with readers long after the last page. Later in the books, a man says that deo needs to get off drugs, but it never said that he was ever on them. There was only the small sections of his story that I don't find completely clear. Review 1: I had to read this book for a social justice theme I was doing in class, but I can't say I really was feeling deo throughout any part of the book.
