Jax was always the outgoing, boisterous one while Norman is more reserved. They have been completely inseparable since they met at the age of 6. He is everything to her and she will do anything to make him happy, so she agrees to help him find his dad on the way to the Fringe. Thank you Julietta for writing something so wonderful

Sadie has been a single mum for all of Norman's life. All I will say is revolving door and tumble dryer!

! a massive well done Julietta Henderson. I am missing Norman already and is most deservedly in my top favourites of year ❤️ Fans of The Secret Life Of Albert Entwistle, One Ordinary Day At A Time, Dog Days and The Authenticity Project will love this hug in a book. Leonard, an elderly man she works with, agrees to help her whittle down the potential dads and do the driving up to Edinburgh from Penzance, with a few stops along the way.

this book deserves to fly off the shelves! When Jax dies just before his twelfth birthday, everything changes. Following Jax's death, Norman decides to rewrite their plan; Do Edinburgh Fringe, Look after mum, Find dad.

. This has everything a good feel book should have and ticks all the boxes. Norman and Jax are best friends.

The pickles Norman gets into on his journey to Edinburgh had me in giggles. This is a beautiful story that made me want to laugh and cry at the same time. They think of themselves as a comedy duo and at the age of ten, they come up with a Five Year Plan which ends with them performing at the Edinburgh Fringe and becoming rich and famous.
