Toby, if you get twenty wickets and ten tries before the end of the year, Mum and I'll buy you a new GameBox V3.'
Can you believe it? One minute I'm in trouble for double-bouncing my sister and the next Dad is telling me I've got the new GameBox V3! And it's not even Christmas. Shot!
Toby thinks this will be easy - after all, he gets Player of the Day all the time. But he hasn't reckoned on Malcolm McGarvy. McGarvy is one of the biggest kids in the school and he's got a huge scar which he got in a shark attack - he wears one of the teeth around his neck. You know McGarvy is near because you get goosebumps up your arms. And he's going to make sure Toby doesn't get that GameBox V3.
A hilarious story about a boy who is promised a Gamebox V3 by his dad if he scores 20 wickets in cricket and 10 tries in rugby, but is foiled at every turn by the class bully.
MY BEST WORST YEAR is a very funny, easy read for 8-12-year-olds. The story is packed with sport, boy humour and practical joking. The main character Toby is somewhat disorganised and irresponsible (but likeable) and his parents set him a challenge in order to be bought a gaming device. A school bully tries to derail Toby's quest, but his best friends ultimately help him to achieve an unlikely goal.
