Quatrième de couverture
They think I'M a big problem. Wrong. THEY are!
Louis can't handle it any more. His new school is Swotsville and his mum and dad have fallen into some very bad ways. All they seem to care about now is how well he's doing at school (answer: not well) and what after-school clubs he wants to join (answer: none!). They're no longer interested in his jokes (his dream is to be a comedian) and have even nicked the telly out of his bedroom!
What's going on? And can new friend Maddy help? For Maddy tells him her parents used to behave equally badly until she trained them. All parents have to be trained - and she knows a foolproof way...
From the award-winning author of Rescuing Dad:
'Funny and light but the humour disguises real emotional truth and depth...it offers some very funny and pertinent home truths for parents, too' GUARDIAN
Revue de presse
"There is a moral here for any parent who frets about a child's progress at school . . . Children who read it won't be turned into hostile monsters; they'll chortle away, feel better about themselves and have a lot of jokes to tell you" (The Sunday Times)
"Johnson's comic romp through a miserable school year in the life of almost 13-year-old Louis touches all the real bases of adolescent boys' lives: girls, parents, TV, comedy" (TES)
"Johnson addresses big issues in a frank manner and with a light touch resulting in a book that both children and parents should read" (Wendy Cooling Junior Education)
"Written with humour and plenty of attitude, this witty book firmly puts the power in the hands of the children" (Junior)
