Excerpt:

Micki Moon was tall and thin with straight dark hair. Daniel Day was short and round with curly blond hair.

Micki's real name was Michelle, but she liked Micki better.

Daniel's real name was Daniel, and that was that.

Micki liked: running, jumping, shouting, singing, dancing, windy days, surf waves, treetops, horses, leaping off haystacks, scrambling up rocks, being with Daniel, and fried-egg-and-sardine sandwiches.

Daniel liked: playing his violin, daydreaming, chess, puzzles, maths, calm days, floating in warm water, watching birds, lying in long grass, sleeping in haystacks, being with Micki, and fried-egg-and-sardine sandwiches.
