Helen Rutter is the author of several Parrot Street favourites, including The Boy Who Made Everyone Laugh which was a huge hit with our Cockatoo subscribers. Her books combine heart-warming stories packed with empathy with humour and witty dialogue. In The Boy with Big Decisions she adds interactive features that allow the reader to decide where the story goes next - and we love it! Perfect for slightly more reluctant readers.

~Sarah

Fred can't make a decision about anything -
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.

YOU are in charge of The Boy With Big Decisions!

Helen Rutter lives in the countryside just outside Sheffield with her comedian husband, two children and two dogs, Ronnie and Billy Whizz. When she is not tapping away in her writing room, she loves walking the dogs, playing board games and reading. Before writing her first novel, The Boy Who Made Everyone Laugh, Helen wrote and performed her work on the stage and has even braved some stand-up comedy.
