He never wanted to be the boy with prosthetics. He wanted to be the boy who belonged. Born different, Elliot grew up standing on the margins, watching, waiting, aching to be seen. His story moves from adapting into childhood to the cruel politics of the playground, from hiding in cloakrooms to falling into unrequited love. Honest, funny, and painfully human, this is the story of a boy who learned that even on the sidelines, a life can be full - and that sometimes, belonging arrives where you least expect it. Elliot is at the edges of the playground - and the stubborn hope of stepping into the middle.
