My Tiny Universe

A book for every kid who has ever felt different. From the multi-award-winning author of Exit Through the Gift Shop, No Words and Laughter is the Best Ending (winner of the CBCA Book of the Year for Younger Readers 2025).Leif is named after a valiant Viking. But being a two-foot nothing, fraidy-cat kid with a thousand and one phobias is about as far from valiant as you can get. He's a Certified Science Enthusiast and has a brain as large and mysterious as the universe. He's not one of the cool kids at school. Or the geeks. He's not even one of the misfits. (Have you ever heard of a misfit who didn't fit in with other misfits?) Leif's different in every way, but especially because he was the first kid to be born with CIA (Climate Induced Anomalies).He didn't have a single friend at West Hershey College, before Albie came along.And that's when all the trouble really began.
