The Accidental Adventures of Onion OBrien: The Great Ape Escape

The deadly childrens debut from Irelands Got Talents Jason Byrne!

Meet Onion OBrien. Hes an ordinary kid growing up in the suburbs where nothing ever happens. Except when it does, it always happens to him.

Luckily, his friends have his back. Theres Sive OConnor, Dallan Okoye, Cliona OHare and Onions big brother Derek (who thinks hes too cool to be in the gang). Together, theyre the Five Os.

For his birthday, Onion is taken to the circus, where a baby ape manages to find her way into Onions backpack. Can the Five Os save her from the evil ringmaster and keep her hidden in suburbia long enough to get her safely to Tota Island Park?

Inspired by Jason Byrnes own accident-prone suburban childhood, this is set to be one of the most exciting debuts in childrens books this year.
