All Jude wants is a simple, hassle-free life. But, with their endless broken promises, her family seem to create nothing but problems. Maybe the boy from school on his shiny new rollerblades will provide the answer…A thoughtful and tender story about growing up and finding yourself.
Jude's family are crazy, quirky and bizarre. Her mum brings her nothing but trouble and her dad thinks he's Elvis. All she wants is a hassle-free life - but it's not easy when she's chasing a trail of broken promises. Things go from bad to worse, but could the floppy-haired boy from school be her knight on shining rollerblades?
