Mister Pip by Lloyd Jones
Shortlisted for the 2007 Man Booker Prize, Lloyd Jones’ Mister Pip is a heartbreaking story of innocence and experience. Intertwined with references to Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations, it is the story of Matilda, a young girl growing up in war torn Bougainville and her introduction to the world of literature in the form of Mr Watts, the only white man left on the island, and Great Expectations, the only book in the school. This collection of PowerPoints and photocopiable resources enable students to explore the themes, characters and setting of this extraordinary novel.
