It's hard to be good when your head is practically exploding with schemes! The hilarious Elizabella series is middle-grade fiction at its finest.
Elizabella – ten and a quarter – is a Poet, Fixer of Fairytales and the biggest prankster in the history of Bilby Creek Primary. And when her plans involve making a swimming pool in the playground without consulting a single teacher, the students are behind her every step of the way. But what happens when Minnie, an even bigger prankster, shows up? Can Bilby Creek handle them both? And more importantly, can they handle each other?
Life is never dull when Elizabella is around! Her overactive imagination comes up with the most awesome ideas. Which everyone, except the principal, seems to love.
