"Filled with fantastical but real-feeling joy" - The Guardian
"A warm hug of a book" - The Irish Independent
"Highs, lows, love and laughter" - LoveReading4Kids
"Witty and clever. This novel really does sparkle" - Roddy Doyle
"Kelly McCaughrain is one to watch" - Susin Nielsen

A sweet and kooky romcom debut for fans of R. J. Palacio's Wonder, Sarah Crossan, and Susin Nielsen's We Are All Made of Molecules.

Twins Finch and Birdie Franconi are stars of the flying trapeze. But when Birdie suffers a terrifying accident, Finch must team up with the geeky new kid, Hector Hazzard, to form an all-boys double act and save the family circus school.

Together they learn to walk the high-wire of teen life and juggle the demands of friends, family, first love and facing up to who they are – all served up with a dash of circus-showbiz magic.

Kelly McCaughrain lives in Belfast, where she works with disabled students in further education, and has just completed a degree in English and Creative Writing at Queens University. She was shortlisted for the 2013 Times/Chicken House Children’s Fiction Prize. When she isn’t writing she also works in a charity bookshop and takes long holidays in her 1967 classic campervan, Gerda. Flying Tips for Flightless Birds is her first novel.
