A gripping Quick Read about family and growing up from bestselling author, Malorie Blackman.


Seventeen-year-old Dante is waiting for his A-level results. He’s got it all planned out. If his results are good, he’ll go to uni and study to be a journalist.

But while he’s waiting, the doorbell rings and it’s his ex-girlfriend. She’s carrying a baby – his baby.
Dante agrees to look after the baby for an hour or two. Then his ex doesn’t come back, and Dante’s plans have to change. With the help of his father and brother, Dante must learn how to be a single parent.
A gripping and original story about love, relationships and growing up the hard way.

Malorie Blackman has written over seventy books for children and young adults, including the Noughts && Crosses series, Thief and a science-fiction thriller, Chasing the Stars.
