Description
Finn N. O. Hope, ultimate fail-magnet, is back in this second instalment of the hilarious middle-grade series by Phil Earle. Perfect for readers of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Loki and Tom Gates.
Finn’s Gran is treating the family to a summer vacation in Tenerife – what could possibly go wrong? How about lost luggage, a hotel with guest rats, an army of dads in tiny mankinis (shudder) and an unexpected encounter with the Mothership and her new boyfriend… Suddenly it’s feeling less like paradise and more like the HOLIDAY FROM HELL. Finn’s going to need some serious good luck to turn this festival of fails into a week of wins!
