Wow, what a rare gem of a book! Coming of age tale of Peter Paddington... an overweight teenage boy wrestling with his sexuality. Done with poignant humour and sometimes sad insight, this story follows right through to the end paragraph delivering a beautiful message of accepetance of oneself and the startling rawness of youth.

Wonderful interview with the author as a bonus.

Highly reccommended.. though subject matter may offend some.
