Cosmic by Frank Cottrell-Boyce is about Liam Digby, a twelve-year-old who is very, very tall — tall enough that people regularly mistake him for an adult. He decides to use this to his advantage, and ends up accidentally getting himself onto the first civilian spaceship to take a group of kids into space. As the adult chaperone. Things do not go entirely to plan. Funny, fast-paced, and surprisingly moving — a book about what it actually means to grow up, told from 239,000 miles above Earth. Shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize. With a new cover by illustrator Steven Lenton. PaperbackAges 9 + Show more
