Since his dad ran off with the lady from the chip shop, Dan Hope's life has gone a bit strange, what with his sister acting mean and Mum's new boyfriend keeping secrets. And now – even stranger – his dad has turned up as a presenter on TV. So Dan decides to sort out his messy, muddled, madcap family, starting with getting his dad back. But as one genius plan after another goes pear-shaped, Dan fears that his wish will never come true... until he starts to realize that your real family aren't always the people you share your name with. A brave, bold and funny debut about family in all its shapes and sizes. "This book totally blew me away. I love it. It's the best new voice I have read in ages." - Cathy Cassidy
