Normal people are extremely unusual. Think of all the people you know and ask yourself how many are normal. None of them! In fact you’re probably the most normal of the lot and, let’s face it, even you’re not that normal. All normal people believe they are a little bit different, a little bit unique, and a little bit special. On the other hand no one wants to be abnormal, so it’s a fine line to tread. Happily, this amazingly funny book shows everyone exactly how to be uniquely normally normal. Is it normal to hold the banister with both hands?  To find the green man at crossings mildly attractive? To  be afraid of aggressive hand dryers? To wonder what coconut milk is actually for? Find out the answers to these and a million other perfectly normal questions in another beautifully funny, surprisingly wise, and consistently heart-warming book .
