520			_aLife is tough for Nicky and his brother Kenny. Money is tight at home, they often run into trouble with local bullies, and Dad's had a lot on his plate since Mum left when they were little. With only each other for support, Nicky and Kenny wind up on unpredictable adventures that will change their lives in unexpected ways. This is a deftly handled exploration of modern poverty, the highs and lows of adolescence and life with learning difficulties.
