'My big brother and sister, William and Mel, may be older than me and bigger than me, but they're not cleverer than me. Just because the chips of the world are stacked against me like a potato mountain doesn't mean they can beat me. Revenge will be mine!
Or rather, mine and the Revengers', and a boa constrictor called Alfred's. Let loose the snakes of doom and see how they like it then! I shall have my revenge before you can say "peanut butter and jam sandwiches"! Actually I shouldn't have mentioned peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Forget you ever read that. If you don't, I may have to kill you.'
Alistair Fury is out for revenge. No more running errands. No more being called "Alice"! It's payback time for his embarrassing mum, his bone-idle dad, and his constantly teasing older brother and sister. Only Alistair's two best friends - and this, his private diary - share his secrets. Culminating in a scene involving a snake, a toupee and a live TV broadcast, Alistair tries to wreak spectacular revenge but it doesn't exactly go according to plan . . .
In lively and accessible diary form, this is a story of family life at its funniest, packed with schoolboy humour. This is the first book in a brilliant and hilarious series by award-winning comic writer, Jamie Rix. Young Corgi books are perfect for building reading confidence.
