Great laugh out loud read!
I passed on my early copy of this to my twelve year old grandson - a very confident reader.
He loved it, and has read it twice!!

Synopsis
Liam is too big for his boots. And his football strip. And his school blazer. But being super-sized height-wise has its advantages: he's the only eleven-year-old to ever ride the G-force defying Cosmic rollercoaster -- or be offered the chance to drive a Porsche. Long-legged Liam makes a giant leap for boy-kind by competing with a group of adults for the chance to go into space. Is Liam the best boy for the job? Sometimes being big isn't all about being a grown-up.

This book is great.
It's great to read aloud to one or more children.
It's based roughly on the story of apollo 13.
And I loved it.
