The second book in the absurdly funny Chronicles of a Lizard Nobody series by multi-award-winning author Patrick Ness.
When Daniel arrives at the school bus stop sporting a salmon-coloured hat, Zeke is shocked. Don’t only birds wear hats? As if this isn’t strange enough, the school suddenly has a new student – a fish of all things – and a mysterious new Guidance Counsellor. Meanwhile, Zeke’s friends seem to have ditched him, and even his old nemesis won't give him the time of day. So when somebody melts his house with the Death Ray of Death – twice – Zeke has had enough. Just who is sabotaging his life – and why?
A touching story full of insight and tenderness, a demonstration of the brilliance of Patrick Ness. * LoveReading4Kids *
A bonkers story perfect for middle grade readers. . . the story is completely barmy and filled with the sort of intelligent, often surreal, humour that is frequently ignored in books aimed at children. . . Fantastic. * World’s Smallest Library *
Tim Miller’s illustrations are as droll as the words and are sure to bring plenty of smiles to readers’ faces. * Red Reading Hub *
I am really loving this series so far! This is the second book and it did not disappoint, so fun to read that I couldn't put it down. * Toppsta Reviewer *
Loved this as a follow up to the other Lizard Nobody. Great read and different to all my other books. I like this one more than the first, it's fantastic. * Toppsta Reviewer, age 12 *
