Reggie Houser Has the Power

The new highly-entertaining story from the queen of making readers laugh-out-loud on one page and cry the next! Reggie Houser has ADHD and struggles to make friends at school, plus his mum and teachers seem constantly weary about his erratic, high-energy ways. But when he sees a hypnotist perform on stage at the holiday park he visits, Reggie becomes obsessed with learning the skills behind mind control and he discovers he has an incredible talent for it! First of all, he hypnotises the dog to think he's a frog, then makes his headmaster cluck like a chicken in assembly in front of the whole school but then a group of mean kids supposedly take him under their wing and make him use his hypnosis talents for bad: stealing a chocolate bar from a shop and escalating to a bigger theft. Reggie must decide to use his skills for good only and come to trust his own brain to make decisions.
