The Funny Thing about Norman Foreman

Julietta Henderson

Twelve-year-old Norman Foreman and his best friend, Jax, are a legendary comedic duo in waiting, gearing up to one day perform at the Edinburgh Fringe.  But when Jax dies, Norman realises he’s not the funny one. Julietta Henderson’s uplifting debut takes us on a road trip with a mother and son who will live in the reader’s heart for a long time to come, and teaches us that—no matter the odds—we must always reach for the stars.
