The Bubble Wrap Boy: Discover the timeless classroom classic Paperback – 1 May 2014

Phil Earle . Penguin . English

How do you stay on the board when your world is turned upside down? Charlie's found his secret talent: skateboarding. It's his one-way ticket to popularity. All he's got to do is practice, and nothing's going to stop him - not his clumsiness, not his overprotective mum, nothing. Except Charlie isn't the only one in his family hiding a massive secret, and his next discovery will change everything. 'Have finished The Bubble Wrap Boy. If happy tears/snot smeared across face were legal currency, Phil Earle would be rich. So warm, and so funny' - Katherine Rundell, author of Rooftoppers and Impossible Creatures "A story about staying true to yourself and following your passion." - Kirkus Reviews

About the Author

I didn't always want to be a writer. I wanted to play football for Hull City, but when a complete absence of talent, skill or stamina cruelly thwarted my lofty ambitions, I turned to daydreaming instead, which led me to storytelling. I've written twenty-five books now for children and teenagers, and LOVE visiting schools, libraries and festivals to talk to people about the power of stories. It's a magnificent way to live my life... Home is on the side of a very steep hill in Yorkshire, with my wife, our children and two dogs.
