Peter Fortune is a boy who likes to daydream. He dreams about swapping bodies with his cat and with his baby cousin, but he gets so lost he’s unsure where one fantasy finishes and the next begins. Cartwheeling through these transformations, Peter eventually finds himself in an adult body experiencing the adventure of falling in love.

Exhilarating
Ian McEwan writes stories of exquisite precision and clarity
As far-fetched and funny as anything by Roald Dahl
Perfectly judged, scary, poignant, meaningful; he makes it look easy, but this is brilliantly achieved
These stories are so good, as acute about childhood preoccupations, and at times as disturbing as you would expect
