Overview

Dan has always been a good kid who listens to his teachers, helps his mum with the shopping and stays out of trouble – but that doesn't stop him being bullied and feeling invisible. So he has low expectations when his parents send him on a class trip to Europe. At first he's stuck with girls who make fun of him, but as he travels through France and beyond, things begin to change.

  • Middle-grade graphic memoir
  • Honest and funny take on growing up
