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!
