It is beautifully written and thought provoking. A really special book." - North Somerset Teachers' Book Award "AJ's situation is described with powerful realism, and yet with the very lightest of touches. He is essentially a young carer, whose parents have learning difficulties, but there is never a sniff of a stereotype or call for pity.
