This is a great book for younger independent readers. DS3 found The Jam Doughnut That Ruined My Life hilarious so he was keen to read the next book in the series and it certainly didn't disappoint. The little illustrations were lovely too.

This is a great book. My sons love it. A chicken nugget only diet really reminded me of my twins as they were growing up, they would have nuggets for breakfast if they could. Smashing!
