"This is one of the great (and very few) books about a boy's love for his father, told in a non-sentimental way." -- Michael Rosen S Magazine, Sunday Express "A triumph. It is the most beguiling book ... and wildly, hilariously funny. If ever a book were for all the family, this is it" Evening Standard
