Danny Thompson is always getting into trouble. He manages to lose his baby sister, he gives his mother exactly the wrong present for her fortieth birthday, and something awful happens to his parents' only wedding photograph. As if that's not enough, he's starting to get zits. And, for some reason, whenever Mandy Miller looks at him he goes hot and cold...
Not bad. The main character, Danny, is 11 and my son is 10, and Danny has a baby sister who is pretty hilarious, think lots of poop and drool, and peeing on a neighbor's rosebushes, so my boy mostly enjoyed it. There were a lot of Australian colloquial expressions so it might get confusing for a child whose English is basically American.
