This book is about a young boy named Tim and he doesn’t like sports. His Dad tries to teach him how to play different sports but for starters he can’t even catch a ball so his Dad gave up. One day his Dad was reading through the newspaper and saw an article about an adventure holidays for kids. Tim’s Dad was really interested and was trying to persuade Tim that it would be really fun but all Tim’s Mum was thinking about his safety first. 

“ Don’t let go of the rope, right?” said Jake.

“This couldn’t be real. It couldn’t be happening to me. If I closed my eyes maybe it would all turn into a nightmare and then I’d wake up in bed at home with Walter Bear,” thought Tim.

Tim arrives at the holiday program and people start teasing him but then suddenly he became a hero.

This book is a short novel but really funny. It is also a very interesting book which would make you laugh.  It is recommended for children from the ages of 8 to 11. If you like humorous books this a a great story for you to read.
