Milo is nearly 13, has just moved house and started a new school (both
for the umpteenth time) - him and his dad and sister are trying to
adjust to life without Milo's mum, who has died, but they aren't coping
very well and no-one is really talking about it. It's not all doom and
gloom though, I promise. It's a tough subject, but dealt with a light
touch and plenty of sparky humour - it's actually really, really funny,
and interspersed throughout with cartoon illustrations that provide
easier access to the tough issues and engage readers in a different way.
The book is never heavy or preachy - sensitive and sad, yes, but
ultimately a hugely entertaining read.

Alan Silberberg is a children's TV and film writer who passionately believes in the value of cartooning to connect with and inspire kids. Like Milo, Alan lost his mother when he was young (to cancer). He was also a lot like Milo as a kid - a loveable geek. Originally from Boston, he now lives in Montreal and is currently working on his second novel. www.silberbooks.com
