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.
Author Biography
Paul Jennings has written over one hundred stories. Since the publication of Unreal! in 1985, readers around the world have loved his books. Andrew Weldon has published two cartoon collections - I'm so sorry little man I thought you were a hand-puppet and If you weren't a hedgehog... If I weren't a haemophiliac...
Reviews". . . a screwball blend of gross-out humor and earnest adolescent yearning, both ably captured in Weldon's crazed b&w cartoons." -Publishers Weekly
