talented Liz Pichon. No school for two whole weeks! (Yeah!) I can
forget ALL about lessons (and irritating things like Marcus
Meldrew). And concentrate on good stuff like: Inventing new ways to
annoy my sister Delia. (So many). Band practice for DOGZOMBIES

of small problems called the dentist and my big weirdo sister,
Delia, seem to be getting in the way of my BRILLIANT plans . . .
