' ... an enjoyable read full of plot twists with a clever
mixture of really funny and rather scary moments and really nice
and truly horrendous characters.' THE PRIMARY TIMES
When Alice Dent gets a cold, she
has no idea how much trouble it's about to cause. Because this
is no ordinary cold: it comes with some seriously extraordinary
side-effects. But when the scary Best Minister for Everything
Nicely Perfect tries to take her away, she realizes her troubles
are only just beginning ...
Bursting with quirky charm and dark Dahl-esque humour;
guaranteed to make you giggle!
Written by debut Welsh author Gwen Lowe, who is Consultant
in Communicable Disease Control for Public Health Wales.
With its plucky heroine and dastardly villains, this
book is perfect for younger fans of Dahl, Walliams, and The Demon
Headmaster.
Themes of friendship and fitting in are at the heart
of the story.
