This is a very embarrassing book. It' s a book about awkward moments, impossible situations and desperate circumstances; it' s about red faces, cold sweats and serious cringing; it' s about putting your heart on the line and hoping it isn' t squashed by the first train into the station. In short, it' s a book about being a teenager. But that means it' s also about heroes, adventure, excitement, and how that first kiss can turn your stomach, and your whole world, upside down. Two briefcases arrive at a humble secondary school, accompanied by two boys from a posh private school. Tasked with showing them how the other half lives are three pupils: Josephine, Winston and Andrew. They have to guide these newbies through the madness, mischief and miscreants of their new school. . . without incident. Fat chance!A briefcase goes missing. They have to get it back. Worse is, they know who has it. Moose, mayhem and Manchester tart - what' s not to like?
Andrew Batty is an Architect by day designing all kinds of schools for all kinds of people. By night he is generally asleep. In the tiny gap between day and night he finds time to write stories that keep him amused, and hopefully others as well. He was born in a small village near Rugby, where he had so much fun, he forgot about schoolwork, failed his eleven plus, and ended up in a secondary school, instead of the grammar school up the road. Every day the school bus went past a posh private school. The posh kids looked so different to the kids around him. That contrast provided the inspiration for The Boy and the Briefcase. . . and the Moose.
