It’s nearly midnight on Greg Jones’ twelfth birthday and he’s cold, wet, hungry and in trouble. Worse, he is trouble. It seems everything that’s gone wrong and there’s plenty, is all his fault. His mum is in hospital because of him. His dad is off in his truck in the back of beyond, and probably not coming home, because of him. In twelve years, Greg has made enough mistakes to fill a book. But maybe the book will still have room for a good chapter if he can track down that scumbag Bargain Bob and make him give back their money.
This is a fantastic story that I thoroughly enjoyed and could not put down. I would recommend it to children who are going through testing times at home and to any child who would like to follow his/her dream. Boys will love it.
