Bug Brother

Age 6-8 If you have a younger brother who just gets on your nerves, can you think of a better way of getting your own back than turning him into a bluebottle? When Jamie wreaks his sweet revenge on with a swish of his magic cape, he is delighted with his efforts until he realises that he has to change things back to normal before mum and dad get home... Pete Johnson is always superb, and in this sparkling novel for newly confident readers he turns up the charm in a funny, pacey story that will have even the most reluctant reader hooked from beginning to end. --Susan Harrison
