About this listen

Lucas is all alone.

Since his mum died, Lucas and his dad don’t seem to understand each other at all. And Lucas is dreading the summer drama club that his dad has signed him up for. But the people Lucas meets at the club force him to open up and start talking. Can his new-found friends teach Lucas how to be himself?

A beautiful, moving story of family, friendship and self-discovery, from the author of the high-acclaimed novels Ella on the Outside and Not My Fault.

This is a beautifully written story. It plots the emotional ups and downs of a boy's summer holiday only three years after the sudden death of his mother. It is written with great care to both engage and move its audience. The narration is something of a let down. The characterisation of some of the voices borders on the ridiculous. That said, it is very much worth a listen.

A Great Story Writer Strikes Again.
