Synopsis/Review ...

Jake lives with his parents in a holiday hideaway hotel - the hotel's main attraction is that it is a "kid-free" zone. When a couple from a magazine arrive to do a feature on the hotel, Jake must keep out of the way to ensure they have a great kid-free time. But things don't go according to plan.

In brief …..

The kitchen was a mess. Packets and jars had been flung around. Half the stuff in the fridge was on the floor. There was a trail of flour running through the passage.

For a second Jake thought one of the magazine people must have had an urge to make a cake and decided to do it in their room.

Or was someone else in the house?

Jake's an only kid. He's the only kid in his family. He's the only kid on his island. Or that's what he thinks . . .

Review
Jake is a lonely boy, living as the only child (so he thinks) on a remote antipodean island, with just his faithful teddy-bear Crusher for a friend. In an effort to help his parents attract tourists to the ramshackle guest-house which they run, he comes up with a couple of amorous and inquisitive journalists who, to cut a long story short, eventually offer to buy the hotel with enough money for the family to leave the island and start up again on the mainland. But Jake's loneliness and despondency also succeed in conjuring up two sisters from the island's past, Gwen and Mabel, who belong to another age when the boarding-house was a home for orphans and unwanted children, and witnessed dreadful acts of cruelty. As usual with the irrepressible Morris Gleitzman, it's the humour and crazy ideas that keep the story cracking along, bouncing energetically from one hilarious scene to the next. This is an enchanting look at a slice of the adult world through the eyes of a curious and often confused 11-year-old. Ages 9-12 (Kirkus UK)
