About this listen
Ten-year-old Solo just wants to be normal.
He wants a name that doesn't stand out. He wishes he had a proper school uniform that fitted him. He dreams about a mum who doesn't get the Big Bad Reds. But most of all he longs to stop crashing funerals for the free food.
But when Solo and Morag crash the funeral of a celebrity and get caught, the press are there to witness their humiliation. The next day it's splashed across the papers. Before Solo knows it, he becomes a viral sensation, and life may never be normal again.

'It is a beautiful, heartfelt gem of a book, I loved it.' (Tom Vaughan, author of Hercules)
'This story is full to the brim with heart.' (Helen Rutter, author of The Boy Who Made Everyone Laugh)
'A wonderful story… it moved me to tears.' (Jen Carney, author of The Accidental Diary of B.U.G)
'A moving, unsettling and thought- provoking story. Solo's voice is so clear and strong that you root for him right from the start. I will carry this with me. Terrific writing!' (Cath Howe, author of Ella on the Outside)
'I was completely engaged with Solo from the first page and found myself absorbed in his story throughout. James Fox writes with empathy about the situation of a boy’s relationship with a hopelessly inadequate mother, his love for her and despair of her. I loved it.' (Berlie Doherty, author of Street Child)
