English

By (author): Stewart Foster

'A moving, humane, funny portrait of two very different boys discovering what connects us all' Kiran Milwood Hargrave, author of The Girl of Ink and Stars
Its amazing! Such a bold idea to have a character like Dan you pulled it off brilliantly. Ross Welford, author of Time Travelling with a Hamster
'I loved it' Lisa Thompson, author of The Goldfish Boy

There are two sides to every story
 

Dan is angry. Nothing has been the same since his big brother left, and hes taking it out on the
nearest and weakest target: Alex.
 
Alex is struggling. His severe OCD makes it hard for him to leave the house, especially when Dan
and his gang are waiting for him at school . . .

Then the boys mums arrange for them to meet up and finish building the raft that Dan started with his brother. Two enemies stuck together for the whole of the school holidays what could possibly go wrong?
