One of Sunday Times' best children's books for summer
2023

Endorsed by Child Bereavement UK A funny, heartbreaking story about life and loss, and
making every second count.

Eric's best friend, Finn Jones, was the world's biggest prankster.
Now Eric can't believe Finn's not here anymore. ...Or is
he?

Eric seems to be getting messages from beyond the grave, and as
he follows Finn's wild, cryptic instructions, his hope grows that
he'll find Finn laughing at the end.

The journey also brings memories - and a truth that seems impossible
to accept.

Life Of Riley: Beginner's Luck

"This funny, gentle story is packed with snappy humour and
hilarious characters."

is original and refreshing." Books For Keeps

"This funny, gentle story is packed with snappy humour and
hilarious characters. You can’t help but love Riley, a brilliant,
witty, world-weary kid and long-suffering underdog. There’s
a lovely message about being grateful for all the things
that you have and for appreciating the people who support you, no

about to start secondary school, though there’s a lot of fun
to be had for grown ups here too."
