The Asparagus Bunch

It's often said that the first day at a new school can be nerve-wrecking, but for 13-year-old Leon Crothers, joining his seventh new school, simply raises the question of who or what will be the reason for his departure. A funny novel exploring themes of neurodiversity and dyslexia.

Jessica Scott-Whyte was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland. She studied History and French at University College Dublin then moved to London where she studied Fashion Journalism. She currently lives in Paris with her husband and two young children in a neurodiverse family. Jessica remains terribly nostalgic of growing up in the nineties and wishes she could go back to that incredible era of Pogs, Art Attack, Ring Pops, Goosebumps books, cereal box prizes, The Crystal Maze and Super Nintendo.
