Liam is too big for his boots. And his football strip. And his school blazer. But being tall has its advantages; he's the only 11-year-old ever to ride the Cosmic rollercoaster, and he enters a competition (against a group of adults) for the chance to go into space. Can long-legged Liam make a giant leap for boy-kind? Sometimes being big is not all about being grown-up... This fun tall story comes from the Carnegie Medal-winning author, and publication is timed to hit the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing. Ages: 9+
Synopsis
