The Boy Who Preferred To Be Somebody Else By Malcolm Moyes Paperback 1785890050 9781785890055 The Boy Who Preferred To Be Somebody Else It was clear from a very early age that Arry Trumper was not happy being Arry Trumper: he preferred to be somebody else, anybody else, other than Arry Trumper. Compelled to participate in a world of unpleasant parents, lunatic teachers and brutal Ofsted inspections, he judges the lot to be inadequate and in need of improvement. Improvement for Arry means the reinvention of the world in his own image: a world in which nothing is regular; a world in which inanity, cruelty and pretentiousness find the oblivion which has for far too long eluded it. The Boy Who Preferred to be Somebody Else is a book to amuse all wannabe subversives aged 13 16, as Arry becomes who he wants to become in his surreal fight against the authority of those who wish he had never existed Southport has never looked so strange! What the characters said about the book: “That boy is poison!” – Arry’s mother “The child is clearly in urgent need of psychiatric help.” – Arry’s Headmaster “I quite like him.” ­– Jeffrey “My blue trousers have never looked smarter.” – Biffa the Bear “Mine too.” – Ofsted Inspector
