Om denne lydbog

Join Jack in his first collection of crazy adventures – he might be shy, but he shines in his school musical, builds excellent Lego castles and even makes his own robot costumes out of cardboard boxes! The Crazy Cousins: Jack's in the mood for mooching around, not playing with his crazy cousins! But will his bad mood spoil the whole day? The Robot Blues: Jack is invited to a costume party, and he's made an awesome robot suit. But what if the other kids at the party think it's lame? The Winning Goal: It's Jack's first day at soccer! He really wants to kick a goal, but the coach has made him goalie. There's no glory in goal keeping, is there? The Scary Solo: Jack’s best friend got the solo that he wanted, and he’s a bit mad. But when things go wrong on concert night, can Jack save the day? The Worry Monsters: Jack hates spelling. He has a test coming up, but he doesn’t want to practise for it. What will happen if he leaves it too late?
