on the Outside It's not easy to fit in when you're the boy in the
suit... Ten-year-old Solo - embarrassingly, that isn't short for
anything - 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, like his
mum Morag. 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.Solo's uphill pursuit of security, community and
connection will break your heart and then mend it. Page-turning,
moving, but ultimately life-affirming, this story is perfect for
fans of The Boy at the Back of the Class, The Goldfish Boy, Wonder
and Jacqueline Wilson. A sensitive, empathetic, timely portrayal of
a family struggling during the cost of living crisis.This
extraordinary debut will make you laugh and cry. &,nbsp,
