Plot summary{{more plot|date=November 2015}}Angus wants to be Bumface, a pirate character he has created. Bumface is brave, bold, wild and free. He stars in the stories Angus tells his younger brother and sister. Instead, Angus is just plain tired from having to change his sister Imogen's nappies and scrape food off the walls. He has to look after his siblings while his famous soap opera actress mother works and chases men. His father and stepfathers don't have time to look after their own children. Angus doesn't want to be mum's Mr Dependable or dad's Mr Reliable he just wants to be an ordinary boy. In the end, Angus gets his own back. ReceptionKathryn James discusses Gleitzman's playing with social roles in that Angus acts as an adult by shouldering the responsibilities of looking after his siblings, whereas his mother is largely absent and his father leaves the work to Angus.[3] Awards
