A jam-fuelled week of disaster is set in motion by a single doughnut!
Roman Garstang is obsessed with food - particularly Squidgy Splodge raspberry-jam doughnuts - but he is about to learn that things are not always as sugar-coated as they might seem. Because of his Monday-morning jam doughnut, Roman's week takes a very sticky turn . . .
By Friday Roman has been banned from eating for 24hrs, narrowly avoided a faceful of warm toddler-wee, accidentally shoplifted, been given a lift in a getaway van, styled his teacher's guinea pig with a blue mohawk, started an OAP riot . . . and still barely managed to scoff a crumb - or lick - of a single doughnut.
Who knew jam could be so deadly?
Laugh-out-loud adventure about a boy who is obsessed with food. Lowery has been shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize twice. * The Bookseller (Children's Previews) *
So funny it ruined my day. * Jonathan Meres, author of THE WORLD OF NORM *
When I wasn't seething with resentment and jealousy, The Jam Doughnut That Ruined My Life actually made me chortle several times. * Jonathan Meres, author of THE WORLD OF NORM *
