The Kissing Game

Description

Salvatore d'Amato is determined to get a kiss before his birthday - easier said than done. From the bestselling and much-loved Jean Ure. Salvatore d'Amato - or Sally Tomato, as his friends sometimes call him - is determined to get a kiss by his thirteenth birthday. And not just any kiss. A kiss from his heart's desire - the lovely, loveable, luscious Lucy! With his wonderful love poetry, and his secret body-building, how will she be able to resist? If only that horrible Harmony Hynde would stop bothering him in the meantime!

Jean Ure has written over sixty books for children and young people. She is a vegan and committed to animal rights hence her passion for writing about animals. She lives with her husband Leonard and 7 stray dogs and cats in a 300-year-old cottage in Croydon.

"Rhymes, sauciness, letters, irony, comedy, comic characters... a proper little turn-on for boys. A must-buy book." BOOKS FOR KEEPS.
