Then We'll Be Happy by Alan Carrigan

If you're always thinking that the next thing will make

you happy ... what about right now?

Seventeen-year-old Sam, who has cerebral palsy, wants some control

over his life.

When he is excluded from yet another school trip and has to spend

the day with his bully, it's the tipping point.

But in his campaign for change, Sam gets more than he bargained

for ...

A debut own-voices coming-of-age YA novel by young Irish

screenwriter and author, Alan Carrigan, who has quadriplegic

cerebral palsy.

An authentic, witty and nuanced story with a powerful,

universal message, about unlikely friendships and the realities

of living with disability.

Simultaneously hard-hitting and heartwarming, with shades

of Out of My Mind and Elle McNicoll.
