Sterling Thaxton is in love. In love with Lizzie Harris - the beautiful new girl. Her hair is the colour of magic. Her nose is as sweet as music. Her arms are as slender as rainbows. Problem is, she's not interested. Luckily a small yellow canary turns up with some excellent advice.
A brand new edition of this laugh-out-loud story of young love fromMr Gumauthor and King of Funny Andy Stanton, now with a lowered reading age of 7.
Andy Stanton's famousMr Gumseries began in a chocolate-fuelled haze one Christmas Eve as he frantically wrote a story to entertain his young cousins the next day. The story was left in a drawer and forgotten until a few years later when Andy found that it still made him laugh. He sent it off to an agent and the rest is history. Andy lives in North London.
