About This Book

Jakob’s face burns as laughter echoes down the school hallway. Before he can hide, his parents announce a family holiday—abroad! But with his dad’s tight budgets, his mum’s endless cheer, and the weirdest girl in school tagging along, Jakob’s escape plan might just backfire. What’s the worst that could happen next?
