About the Book

There’s only one thing worse than walking home from school with Mum. That’s when your mum’s the teacher. Nobody wants to talk to you.
When Sebastian moves to the city with his family, he finds it tough. But a chance encounter with the old man next door, and his pigeons, opens up a whole new and unexpected world.
