Ben stared at the TV.
He had never seen anything like it.
Fascinating.
Incredible.
Awful.
He had to do something.

There are some things Ben doesn't understand, so his dad is sent in to explain the facts of life. But it's the other facts that are worrying Ben and he decides to find his own answers.

He's deadly serious – and the results are very, very funny.

On a quest to understand the big issues in life and determined to make those around him listen, Ben navigates his way through the distractions and self-obsessions of those closest to him.

This clever and emotional story tackles a relevant issue and will challenge kids thoughts and perspectives, while keeping them thoroughly entertained with its blend of humour and heart. Don't miss out on this insightful and unforgettable tale.
