Tim is a disaster when it comes to any kind of sport. So how will he cope with an adventure holiday?

Can Tim survive the horrors of a week absolutely packed with activity? Can his team - the Tigers - be the overall champions? There are some surprises in store for everyone!

Reviews

Weaves plenty of plot strands in a very short space, and leaves us smiling at the end. Which is definitely the way to do it * Daily Telegraph * An excellent, fast-moving story, full of humour for competent readers * The Good Book Guide * Jacqueline Wilson's easy, humorous style deals lightly with a serious problem. Many children who share Tim's agonies will perhaps take courage from this entertaining story * The School Librarian *
