Summary
Shortlisted Children's Books Ireland Bisto Children’s Book of the Year Award 2003 Shortlisted South Lanarkshire Book Award 2003
A rollicking novel told in journalistic form follows the life of Jesse, a teenage boy trying to discover who he really is, as he shares his humorous views on being a teenager.
Jesse Flood is 14 and coming to terms with lots of things. But coming to terms with himself and how he fits in with the world is not going to be too easy for Jesse.
He thinks he is doubtful, timid and too gentle - but he is also courageous and brave and when faced with difficult choices he is good at making them. For example he knows he likes a girl with lovely long yellow hair - and he is going to let her know!
In Jesse Flood, Malachy Doyle has created an enchanting and utterly believable young man who we watch with concern and admiration growing up over the course of one summer.
'A really good novel. It brings Jesse Flood to life, and allows us to see into his mind and heart.' David Almond
