A delightfully funny novel about what it's like to be the middle child of a big, raucous and loving family in a small house with only one toilet, from the CBCA shortlisted author of To and Fro.
Dad likes rules. Mum likes order. My siblings like breaking both.
Leon is having a bad time - his best friend Jacob has moved to Alaska, he''s not allowed to look after Jacob''s cat, he has to be a buddy to the weird new kid, and no one in his family listens to him. The only place he feels calm is under his bed, listening to cat-themed songs.
When Leon encourages his parents to help out the new kid, his problems get worse. Everyone in Leon''s family seems to like Victor better than him. He tries to tell them how he''s feeling, but how can a quiet person like Leon make himself heard in such a loud family?
''Perfect for fans of Andy Griffiths, Paul Jennings and Morris Gleitzman.'' Books+Publishing
''A warm, laugh-out-loud funny, purring fuzzball of a book.'' Sophie Beer, award-winning author of Thunderhead
''Perfectly captures the chaos of large-family dynamics with humour, warmth and compassion.'' Nathan Luff, bestselling author of the Nerd Herd series
