Publisher's Synopsis
Everyone in Brian's family has their own ideas about what Brian should be. His mother wants him to be a famous violinist and makes him practice for hours. His father wants him to be a computer wizard, his older sister forces him into ballet tights and his uncle sees him as a jockey. His family keep on nagging him until he finally announces what HE wants to be. A poignant but funny tale about adults letting children just be children. 'Mary Rees's illustrations, very much in the tradition of Quentin Blake, are entertaining. . . a sophisticated product' - Times Educational Supplement
