Sometimes it takes a little boy to see the big things in life.Ten-year-old Zac has never met his father, who allegedly took off before he was born. But when his mum lets slip that he's the only man she's ever loved, Zac turns detective and, roping in his best friend, hatches a plan to find his dad and give his mum the happy-ever-after she deserves. What he doesn't realize, though, is that sometimes people have good reasons for disappearing.Little Big Man is a compelling story about family secrets and fierce, familial love.
