Synopsis

Awarded Best Indie Young Reader, Children’s Literature Festival 2023

Tyler is late for school again. And his teacher's not happy about it.

Thing is, his mum is sick and his autistic younger brother, Levi, needs help getting ready for school. Is Tyler supposed to leave without giving Levi his breakfast or Mum her cup of tea?

Sent to detention for lateness, he is joined by “bad-boy” Jayden, class clown Alisha, and, most surprisingly, straight-A student, Grace.

When an alien crash lands in their school gym, "The Late Crew" are entrusted with his special cargo. But can Tyler really take on another responsibility? It turns out his fellow Late Crew have problems of their own; but perhaps if they team up, they could just save their school and their new friend too…

About this title

About the Author

Rab Ferguson lives in the North of England, where he goes on walks in the countryside and thinks of stories. When he gets home, he writes those stories down in a notebook or on his computer. He used to live in Scotland, but they kicked him out for causing too much trouble. When not writing, Rab works for charities, doing things like helping young people with their mental health or encouraging adults to read books. He claims he’s never really met an alien, but he might just be keeping it secret.
