    Riley Noodle is halfway through Year Six at Crumpet Creek Primary School and is the only student in her grade who hasn’t broken a school record. With time running out, Riley is desperate to do it. When we meet Riley, she has somehow found herself superglued to Mr Sandwich, the pet dog of the mean school principal. With the not-so-helpful assistance of her best friend Henry, new girl Olivia, and her annoyingly perfect twin brother Charlie, Riley manages to free herself from the dog, but not before accidentally eating an earthworm, falling into dog poo and becoming the laughingstock of the whole school thanks to her arch-nemesis, Gracie. A comedic story for lovers of slapstick and toilet humour.
