The Ballad of Pondlife McGurk.

They are new to Primary 6 but that’s the only thing they have in common.

Martin and Simon. Newcomers. One keen to fit in; the other doesn’t care. But they become best friends and swear an oath to stick together. They will never enter the dark side and join forces with the school bullies. But Martin does something bad. Something that destroys their friendship and leaves Simon stuck for the rest of his school days with the nickname Pondlife McGurk.

This is a coming of age tale about friendship, bullying and overcoming adversity.
