Tom Weekly 4: My Life and Other Exploding Chickens (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

"Fans of Griffiths, Gleitzman and Jennings will be thrilled to have this in their collection." Kids Book Review
I'm Tom Weekly. If my life is an exploding chicken, this book is my attempt to glue it back together.

I have a few confessions. I've done a runner from the dentist. I'm petrified of clowns. Giant headlice tried to eat me. A lost sock nearly killed me. And you're not going to believe this, but I was attacked by Library Ninjas when
my book was five years overdue. Let my life be a warning to you.

Plus, how to get famous by:
1. Clapping
2. Collecting scabs
3. Knitting
