A hilarious and action-packed mini-adventure perfectly pitched for young readers. Daisy knows she’s going to love going on a fishing trip with her uncle even if she knows absolutely nothing about fishing! Daisy’s uncle makes sure she has her own rod, her own catapult and her own bait – maggots. The combination is a recipe for disaster. How the fishing trip goes and how the maggots end up in some unexpected places is a wonderfully entertaining adventure.
Go crazy for the one and only Daisy! Cheeky, extremely readable and funny young fiction from the bestselling author behind the hilarious OI FROG series.
Here comes trouble!
Daisy's uncle is taking her on a FISHING TRIP! And she is so excited.
There is so much to learn about fishing, it isn't just about rods and bait and waiting. Daisy also needs to know about:
How water witches turn fishermen into dog poos Why supermarkets don't stock picknicky things like lemonade and chicken wings on the same shelf And why maggots are one of the best things about fishing! But the trouble with maggots is they don't make very good catapult ammunition...
Daisy, with her perfectly round face, determined, beady eyes and severe Joan of Arc coif, is a veritable icon of juvenile intransigence. Publishers Weekly
