Synopsis

The changeling of the title is Tom Curdie, the product of a Glasgow slum. Thirteen years old, he is on probation for theft. His teachers admit him to be clever, but only one, Charles Forbes, sees in his reticence and in his seemingly insolent smile a magnanimity uncanny in a child. He decides to take Tom on holiday with his own family. And the effect of his decision is the subject of this powerful book.
