What is Earth to Daniel about?

Daniel is horrified when his mum becomes the head teacher at his new school. Things get even worse when his dad goes abroad and his mum stops taking the medicine that keeps her mental illness under control. Soon, her behaviour becomes increasingly strange, and Daniel realises that something is seriously wrong. With help from unexpected friends, he must find a way to protect his mum, cope with his worries and understand that he cannot solve everything alone.
