The wonderfully funny and richly warm novel by the bestselling, award-winning author of Holes

Meet Bradley Chalkers. He΄s the oldest child in the class. He tells ENORMOUS lies. He picks fights with girls. The teachers say he has ΄serious behaviour problems΄. And no one likes him ... Except Carla, the new school counsellor. She thinks Bradley is kind and generous, and she even enjoys his far-fetched stories.

Carla knows that Bradley could change, if only he weren΄t afraid to try. Sometimes the hardest thing in the world is believing in yourself.

A heartwarming story of bravery and acceptance from Louis Sachar, the bestselling author of Holes and Fuzzy Mud.
