Touching and often hilarious... A truly joyful read
Press && Journal

**********

Danny Malooley s life is falling apart.

He s a single parent with an eleven-year-old son, Will, who hasn t spoken since the death of his mother in a car crash fourteen months ago. He s being pursued by a dodgy landlord for unpaid rent and he s just lost his job. Struggling to find work, and desperate for money, Danny decides to do what anyone in his position would do.

He becomes a dancing panda.

After seeing street performers in his local park raking it in, he spends his last fiver on a costume... but the humiliation is worth it when Will finally speaks to him for the first time since his mother s death. The problem is Will doesn t know that the panda is in fact his father, and Danny doesn t want to reveal his true identity in case Will stops talking again.

But Danny can t keep up the ruse forever...
