Aggiungere al carrelloPaperback. Fred is never allowed to make his own decision about *anything* - his parents are super rigid and controlling and have even chosen his secondary school for him, signing him up for the exams-focused Gains School rather than Browtree which is known for its sports teams and art department, much more Fred's area of interests. On his first morning, Fred is waiting for his bus to Gains when he sees the bus for Browtree also pull up - and he realises there's a choice right in front of him! Will he meekly climb onto the Gains bus or rebel against his parents and pick Browtree? The interactive and super engaging twist to this book is that the reader can make this choice, as the narrative from this point diverges into pathways that have 8 choices imbedded in them - all to do with making friends, and standing up for what you believe in, and compromising, and course-correcting and being true toyourself. It's Sliding Doors for middle grade as an indecisive boy makes aset of choices which propel him down different story pathways. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

his parents always tell him what to do, from what to eat every day to which secondary school to choose.
that's how Fred has found himself a pupil at the high-pressure, strict Gains School, when he'd much rather be going to Browtree, with its brilliant art department and kind teachers.
As Fred waits for the bus to his new school, he sees the bus for Browtree pull up - and a wild, thrilling, thought strikes him. Should he jump on this bus and pretend he's a new student at Browtree?
Will he be brave enough to follow a different path for once?
You, the reader, will stand in Fred's shoes and make decisions alongside him throughout this story. You'll help him stand-up for what he believes in, learn what he truly loves to do, make good friends and face choices about whether to swerve or walk into drama.
