Such a positive story about gaming; original and heart-warming. - Julia Green, author of The Children of Swallow Fell
A sensitively-handled portrayal of bullying; deeply authentic & perfectly-pitched for its MG audience. - Kirsty Applebaum, author of The Middler
Harvey tackles themes of anxiety, gaming, friendship, working class backgrounds, step families and bullying. It's an important read that so many children will be able to connect to and discuss within classroom too. Should be in every school! - A. M. Dassu, author of Boy, Everywhere
A really sensitive exploration of bullying (but also managing to be a page turner). With added gaming joy! - Louie Stowell, author of The Dragon in the Library
A perfect MG family drama with bags of energy and humour. - Elen Caldecott, author of The Marsh Road Mysteries
Written with delicate precision, sensitivity and empathy, Harvey has crafted a thoughtful, moving narrative that echoes the likes of R. J. Palacio, Stewart Foster and Zanib Mian. - Bluebird Reviews
A fantastic story about gaming, friendship and standing up for yourself. - Library Girl and Book Boy
This is a pacey read that will go down a storm in KS2 classrooms. - Books for Topics
