Marv’s fourteen and his life is simple. There’s football. And his best mate, Jimmy. Perfect. Nothing else matters until a new girl at school called Carly crashes into his life. For Marv, it’s love at first sight, his emotions flipped upside down, as he knows a girl like Carly will never notice him. He needs help – lots of it – but when it miraculously arrives in the shape of a musical idol from the past, the path to Carly’s heart proves anything but easy … First love is unforgettable, and poor Marv is about to learn this the hard way – him, and his northern soul …Trade Review"A sweet and touching tale pitched firmly at boys of an awkward age … crashes and burns in amusing ways that sit somewhere on the teenage cringe scale between Adrian Mole and The Inbetweeners … Redding's appearance gives the story a brilliantly irreverent edge." – The Times "Earle is brilliant at capturing the excruciating realities of a teenage crush" – The Telegraph “Delightfully, toe-curlingly cringe for any teen who’s ever felt useless around their crush. Hilarious and heart-warming” – Holly Bourne “A brilliantly funny and achingly real story that perfectly captures the life of a teenage boy in all of its awkward, cringy glory.

No one can tell a story quite like Phil Earle” – Katya Balen “Awkward, tender and dull of soul. A Spin the Bottle merry-go-round of a story” – Steven Camden “A joyous read!” – Lisa Thompson “A tale of young love, dating disasters, and the ghost of Otis Redding eating kebabs, this was excrutiating and hilarious – and I never want to be a teenager again” – Alastair Chisholm “I absolutely loved it. It’s so sweet, funny, relatable, well paced and original …” – Sarah Crossan “I've read pretty well every word Phil Earle has written, but this might just be my favourite of his books.

Little, Brown Book Group Carries War
Book SynopsisOne of the most loved and enduring wartime novels, Carrie's War is a modern classic. Published for the first time as a Virago Modern Classic, with a foreword by Michael Morpurgo.Trade ReviewA poignant and realistic picture of what the second world war was like for a child . . . Carrie's War captures the true reality of war for a child, and it doesn't sentimentalise war -- Shirley Hughes * Guardian *A very touching, utterly convincing book about three wartime evacuees billeted to Wales. It's very much a children's story, with a mystery to be solved, but Nina Bawden is very subtle with her characterisation - even hateful Mr Evans with his cruel bullying is seen as sadly pathetic too. Carrie and her little brother Nick are a delight, but my favourite character is their friend Albert Sandwich. He might sport steel spectacles and have a few spots on his chin, but he's one of the most charming boys in all children's fictionDelicately done, full of accurate and unsentimental understanding * Sunday Telegraph *Perhaps the best of Nina Bawden's excellent novels * Sunday Times *Always an important book, but even more so now with the refugee and asylum seeker crisis that brings the book new relevance -- Michael Morpurgo * Sunday Times *What a deep, dark, deceptively simple, brilliant novel it is -- Emma Carroll
