Boy Vs Reality

Ethan Lacey is the youngest member of online family vlogging sensations Meet the Laceys. Ethan’s family share all their wholesome slice-of-life details with their million subscribers, from meal-prep Mondays to Dad’s new dorky passion for his camper van, to japery and pranks played between Ethan and his older brother.

But behind the scenes, Mum and Dad have been arguing and Dad’s pretty much living in the camper van. Determined to keep up appearances as the perfect family for their large audience, they are pretending that nothing is wrong. But when the cracks start to show, Ethan is on a mission to make Mum and Dad realise they need to focus on the real world, not the online one.

Boy Vs Reality by James Fox dives deep into the heart of a family navigating the delicate line between public image and private struggles, as seen through Ethan’s eyes.
