The dialogue and characters in Skellig are real and the author, David Almond deals with difficult subject matter in very sensitive way. Because Michaels predicament is one any of us could find ourselves in, we cant help but sympathized with him. He and Mina explore the meaning of trust, friendship and family in this novel so it is well-deserving of the praise and recognition it has received.
