Agatha Parrot and the Mushroom Boy

by Kjartan Poskitt

Agatha Parrot is back with a second very important story to share, and a bonus recipe for sponge cake at the end of the book Helloooo! This story is about the time I was watching SING, WIGGLE, AND SHINE on TV (the worst talent show ever WAHOO love it love it) but my evil brother James stole the TV remote so he could watch sports instead. Don't worry, I got my own back! All it took was a giant yellow cake, some fairies, a school fete, and a big sofa cushion. Oh, and Dad ended up with his toenails painted, so does that all make sense to you? It will when you've read this book!
