Brittany & Co. Take on Paris - by John Larkin (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Brittany and co. are horse crazy, but when their headmistress, Ms. Tralala, bans their actual horses from their extracurricular school horse club, they decide instead to compete in The First Inaugural International Hobby Horse Championships in Paris (TFIIHHCiP).

To raise money for their trip they attempt to sell radioactive chocolate crackles outside the village bookshop! With the help of Ms. Tralala, who insists on joining them on their adventure, Brittany and Co. take on Paris in a way that Paris has never been taken on before. Will it matter that they haven't done a scrap of practice for their big competition?

Be warned. This book will make you laugh until you puke.
