But James's father seems uncomfortable about the plan, and a lot of other things - like any mention of Mr Hamilton, and James's dancing, and how James talks about his new friend Joel.

James can find relief with his beloved Nan, she's been having worrying falls, and James can't tell anyone, or she might be sent to a faraway care home. Glitter Boy armor can be used by any character trained in piloting robot power armor, but they pilot the shimmering vehicle at the basic level. Only the pilots of the Glitter Boy O.C.C. are specifically trained in the complete understanding and operation of the armor. These mechanized warriors are one with their machine. Without giving too much away, the plot centres around Jamie’s new teacher Mr. Hamilton’s announcement about his upcoming wedding to his boyfriend (and the school choir’s plans to surprise him with a performance). Jamie’s father seems hesitant to sign the consent form, leaving Jamie confused about why that might be. A smaller, lighter version developed by the Repubilcans. It's RG-33 Rail gun is less powerful than the infamous "Boom Gun", and fires in bursts. It may also use a LC-33 Variable laser cannon. I loved this book! As a teacher there were lots of funny titbits about teaching, like the uncanny ability of deciphering which jumper belongs to which child by its smell! And the glorification of the staff room by children!

Due to an exchange of technologies with Free Quebec, the German company Triax managed to create this sleeker, smaller version of the Glitter Boy. It has the same Boom Gun as the G-10, but also carries additional armaments in the form of a small laser, missiles, and a vibro-blade. Used by both the New German Republic and Free_Quebec. Only, life has a way of surprising you. James worries about Nan, who keeps having falls, and he can’t talk to his dad, who’s silent and sad since Mum left. Then the bullying by Paul starts again, along with the word ‘gay’ as an insult. James doesn’t know if he’s gay, but it seems like everyone thinks it’s an awful thing to be. Mariah’s songs tell James to be true to himself, but it’s really hard when he’s still working out who he is, like any eleven year old. This is a space-borne version of the original G-10 nearly identical except for modifications to allow it to operate in Zero Gravity.

The Glitter Boy environmental suit was the first fully field operational power armor to be deployed by the US military. The unit is an amazingly small and mobile, one person, armored robot vehicle. The robot suit stands approximately 10 feet tall (three meters) and offers fully articulated hands and the mobility of the human body. As such, it is considered an all terrain vehicle. The super-dense chrome armor is constructed on a molecular level and can withstand more mega-damage than any other robot created since.

Despite his struggles, James shows the readers that if you ignore bullying, it doesn't necessarily go away, and you need to open up to others for help. It also shows that if you stand up for what you believe in, you become the best version of yourself.James has always loved dancing with his best friend Harriet and singing along to Mariah Carey’s songs with his nan. Worryingly, in Year 5, a boy called Paul started hissing at James in the playground. But James is determined to have a great Year 6 with their great new teacher Mr Hamilton.
