The Boy Who Was Trouble
Some kids are good.
Some kids are trouble.
Most kids are both.
This is the story of a boy who has a bit of a reputation.
He doesn’t mean to get into trouble… but somehow, it always seems to find him.
So when his parents plan a big day out with new people, there’s just one hope:
maybe this time will be different.
