'Fergus McPhail and his family have just moved from Brisbane to Melbourne, and this is the story of Fergus's life in this turbulent first year of readjustment. ' (Libraries Australia record).
'Teenager Fergus McPhail (and his irrationally optimistic alter-ego), stumbles from crisis to crisis mostly of his own making. The stories cover a year in his life, showcasing Fergus at home with his erratic family, at school among friends, at play and sometimes, just sometimes, having a win in the steeplechase of adolescence.'
