The reason I even thought Brango was worth establishing was to share powerful stories like James Thoo’s Palooka: 12 Rounds To Fatherhood. He and his beautiful family are pure joy to be around because they have such fight, heart and love among them. And there’s really nothing quite like seeing an author who deserves to win do just that.

Palooka, aligned with James’ natural writing talent, really should be a movie someday. Do have a read of this piece, which puts paid to this precious tome we’ve been working on since November last year (much longer for James, of course!).

For sure the most wonderful thing to have happened this month at Brango: James Thoo’s Palooka gets a big giant shout out in The Straits Times. So proud of this amazing author, his openness to turning pain into power, and the journey that is this book.

In addition to all the kudos that have been pouring in from readers about the book is this piece. 💓 Such an honour to be featured by the incredibly empathetic folks at The Straits Times!!! I’m going out to buy extra print editions tomorrow. 🥊 🏆 🏆

SINGAPORE - Mr James Thoo cannot remember when he got married.. Read more at straitstimes.com.

On behalf of James Thoo and the team at Brango, we’d like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who’s been snapping up first editions of Palooka: 12 Rounds To Fatherhood since we opened up sales days ago! (Order your hard cover edition here https://jamesthoo.com/)

I'm so chuffed that we’re running out of signed copies, which is pretty amazing for an all-new release.

We finally got the pre-press copy of Palooka: 12 Rounds to Fatherhood to James Thoo this week. And the look on this face was priceless to me.

We started working on it back when people still met face to face, in November 2019. It feels like a lifetime ago, as we ploughed through concept stages, a few personal heartbreaks and dashed plans, and a host of other challenges.

But there’s really nothing like the sense of achievement I feel as a publisher to see such a deserving story take the shape of this physical book.

Go to www.jamesthoo.com/buy-now to get your hands on a copy. Still time to get one of the first 200 signed by James!!
