For all the little chubbers who've ever been called a fatso, nothing hurts more than knowing those bullies are right, but nothing feels better than shutting them up. "Liam Carroll burst upon the literary scene as 'Slippery', a lubricious wolf in sheep's clothing, as he winged it to a fortune on the trading floors of Asia and Europe. Now comes the big switcheroo to a sheep in wolf's clothing. Liam is a too fat seven year-old and Fanta addict. He cops his share of cruel and wounding put-downs from his peer group bullies and becomes their daily target. They say 'Balmain boys don't cry' but Liam sheds many tears until he realises he has to fight back. He sheds the flab and the Fanta and with help from his warm and wonderful family he sees off the bullies in fine style and becomes 'Balmain's best boy'. This true story is for everyone, fat or thin, young or old, whether bullied or not, Liam invites you to raise your can of Fanta and drink to a world without bullies." Ted Spink, 94, Avalon
