      ''Funny and relatable'' Heat

      Mishaps at work, mayhem at home...


      It''ll get easier when he starts school... That''s what Lucy was told, and she believed it. But now that her autistic son Stanley has joined Reception, his obsession with Africa and daily screaming fits at the school gates haven''t exactly won him or Lucy any popularity contests.

      So for Stanley''s fifth birthday Lucy plans an extravagant party to help him connect with his classmates. But her autistic husband Ed knows how his son''s mind works better than anyone, so instead of a big bash, they travel to Wales to eat a Libya-shaped birthday cake with Lucy''s family.

      And suddenly Lucy is faced with the truth about what her loved ones really need, and how they can finally find their tribe...
