Description

"The other kids don't see things the same way as me. I spend a lot of time imagining things. I just don't get it. Inside my head I am not the same as other kids." Ricky is an ordinary boy, who dreams of being famous. And he has a secret that might just help him realise his dream. Because Ricky can fly. Truly. He can really fly. But there's a hitch. He can only fly when absolutely no one is looking. If a person, an animal or a bird sees him while he's flying, he will fall out of the sky and almost certainly die. But Ricky is desperate. Will he risk flying in public, just for a shot at fame? Don't Look Now will have readers laughing out loud at Ricky and his hilarious adventures - on and off the ground.

Reviews

." . . a screwball blend of gross-out humor and earnest adolescent yearning, both ably captured in Weldon's crazed b&w cartoons." -Publishers Weekly
