The Night Bus Hero

Illustrated by Pippa Curnick

Hector is a bully. A big one.

He's the kind of bully that likes to throw rubber snakes into the school soup, and empty the pockets of smaller kids outside the school toilets...

 
But as a spate of strange robberies begin to grip London, Hector's decision to bully a homeless man named Thomas sets off a chain of events that even he couldn't foresee.

The question is: can a bully like Hector ever become the hero of his own story? Or will the bully within always win the day?

Inspired by a homeless man Onjali met when she was just 14, The Night Bus Hero is a homage to the many homeless communities surviving on our streets, both seen and unseen, and the countless everyday s/heroes helping them survive.
