Description:
About a Boy meets Parenthood
in this smart, big-hearted love story about a family for whom
everything changed one night, a decade ago, and the young boy who unites
them all.
Ten-year-old Zac Hutchinson collects facts: octopuses have three hearts, Usain Bolt is the fastest man on earth. But no one will tell him the one thing he wants to know most: who his father is and where he went.
When
Zac's mother, Juliet, inadvertently admits that his dad is the only man
she's ever loved, Zac decides he is going to find him and deliver his
mom the happily ever after she deserves.
But Liam Jones left for a
reason, and as Zac searches for clues of his father, Juliet begins to
rebuild what shattered on the day that was at once the happiest and most
heartbreaking of her life.
Told through the eyes of Zac, Juliet, and grandfather Mick, Little Big Love is a layered, heartfelt, utterly satisfying story about family, love, and the secrets that can define who we are.
Katy Regan was born and
brought up in the northern seaside town of Morecambe. Her claim to fame -
aside from being possibly the only person in the world to get expelled
from primary school - is that at the age of 16 she went to stage school
in Surrey with Posh Spice. She worked at 19 magazine for two years
before joining Marie Claire in 2002. 'Highlights' in that position
included spending ten days in the buff on a nudist resort and becoming a
footballer's wife for a week -- all in the name of investigative
journalism. In 2004 at the height of her career as the office roving
reporter singleton, she fell accidentally pregnant by her best mate (who
just remained a friend). Seeing the creative possibilities in this
unconventional situation, her editor commissioned her to write a column -
And then there were three! which proved so successful it ran for two
years and inspired many a reader to write in to Katy with their life
story. She has now taken her loyal following to her blog - The State
She's In - on the Marie Claire website. She lives in south London and
shares care of her son Fergus with his dad who lives across the road.
