Daisy and the Trouble with Coconuts

Summary

Daisy's back, and running into trouble again . . . this time at the funfair! Cheeky, extremely readable and funny young fiction from the bestselling author behind the hilarious OI FROG series.

Here comes trouble!


Daisy cannot wait to go to the funfair!

But the trouble with funfairs is, there are coconuts there.

And coconuts are THE WORST TYPE OF NUTS. Daisy very firmly believes that they shouldn't be allowed at a funfair.

They're too big and too hairy, and if you win one they just get you in trouble. Which DEFINITELY isn't Daisy's fault!
