Review
Anyone with a big imagination is going to love this book!
Jimmy Cook and Alice Toolie really do not like each other. And when Jimmy is caught reading Alice’s private diary, things only escalate. But their teacher Ms Fennel has a plan! Jimmy and Alice must write to each other and they must try to be nice.
What follows is a series of highly humorous exchanges between the two, who ultimately find that they have more in common than think, although they wouldn't want to admit that.
Follow Jimmy and Alice on their adventures as they catch, and then try to get back, the ghost that was haunting the Level 2 toilets, as they endeavour to raise money for the school fete, and make sure that their Mums are definitely not friends!
Readers aged 7 + will absolutely love this story, with the letter writing format of the book only adding to its appeal.
