Acerca de esta escucha

"Charming, warm and uplifting...there is so much to love about this book." (Laurie Frankel, New York Times bestselling author of This is How It Always Is)

A triumphant and touching debut about the unlikeliest superstar you’ll ever meet.

Twelve-year-old Norman Foreman and his best friend, Jax, are a legendary comedic duo in waiting, with a plan to take their act all the way to the Edinburgh Fringe. But when Jax dies, Norman decides the only fitting tribute is to perform at the festival himself. The problem is, Norman’s not the funny one. Jax was.

There’s also another, far more colossal objective on Norman’s new plan that his single mom, Sadie, wasn’t ready for: he wants to find the father he’s never known. Determined to put a smile back on her boy’s face, Sadie resolves to face up to her own messy past, get Norman to the Fringe and help track down a man whose identity is a mystery, even to her.

Julietta Henderson’s delightfully funny and tender debut takes us on a road trip with a mother and son who will live in the reader’s heart for a long time to come, and teaches us that - no matter the odds - we must always reach for the stars.

I laughed and I cried. Laughed out loud, Cried into my swimming goggles - I listen while swimming laps. One of my absolute favourite listens.

Just wonderful

This is the feel-good book of the decade! Norman is a delight, Sadie has the fear of every mother and they're both "adopted" by a delightful elderly man who becomes their fairy-god father. And, Katherine Parkinson is a perfect narrator! Oh, and Jax will really never be gone.

I'd go hear Norman in any comedy club

This was a phenomenally told story and listening to it is the only way to enjoy it because without the proper accents I am not sure my own reading would have done it justice. You will laugh, you will cry, and you most definitely will not regret listening to this amazing story. Could not stop listening and have recommended it to everyone I know. Excellent excellent story and superb performance!

100% recommend!

Amazing story and beautifully told from the perspectives of a mother and son on their journey. It reaffirms, me as a father that I have a tremendous impact on my children’s lives and overall self-worth. Even at my personal lows, I am still their dad, and they look up to me without judgement and prejudice and love me for what I am able to provide. I hope they know how much I love them.

The world needs more uplifting books on grief. It’s messy and heartbreaking and grief never goes away. But if you take grief out to lunch, you can find a way to live with it and allow it to help you not hold you back. This story illustrates that.

I really enjoyed this story about an awkward boy who was deeply affected by the death of his best friend. The narrator did a good job with her delivery and timing, but there were times when she spoke too quietly and I couldn't hear what she was saying, like when Norman was muttering to himself. It was very in character, but I couldn't hear and it was a little frustrating.

Great characters and funny story

I thought I wasn’t going to like this book, only marched forward because my sister spoke so highly of it. I’m glad I did! It really hooked me after four or five chapters and then I couldn’t stop!

Fantastic!

I loved this book! It was such a refreshing view of human nature. I laughed out loud at the things these characters said and were thinking, because I was thinking the same thing! I want to find more to enjoy by this author!

Best book I have listened to in a long time!
