May Contain Nuts

by Jonathan Meres · 2011

+ Want to read

Norm has had to leave the house he grew up in, and his new life is not turning out the way he hoped. Small everyday frustrations pile up, from the strange habits of a new home to the noise that keeps him awake at night. Each day brings another reason to wonder whether things will ever feel fair again. Told with a sense of humour and a steady supply of awkward moments, this is a lighthearted story about a boy getting through the upheaval of moving house.
