Product description

Violet is normal-sized one minute and pocket-sized the next!

It’s the BIGGEST day in Violet’s life. All she has ever wanted to do is ride Plunger, the scariest roller coaster around. And today she is finally TALL enough. 1.4 meters to be exact. But just as Violet is about to climb into one of Plunger’s carriages, something totally crazy happens. Violet shrinks! She is suddenly as small as a fish finger.

Although Violet doesn’t stay little for long, her chances of ever riding Plunger are ruined. She never wants to shrink again… But then Granny is accused of stealing, and tiny Violet might just be the only one who can catch the thief.

The first book in a fantastically funny new series!

When I read the back cover of the book it sounded really funny, exciting and surprising. I decided that this was the book that I wanted to spend my money on at the school book fair.

As soon as I got home I started reading the book. Three days later I had finished it !

It isn’t just about Violet shrinking , there are lots of other dramas that happen. Lots of words were typed in different fonts to emphasise their meaning eg. BIG and whoosh! This made me want to read it even more.

I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
