From the publisher
I’m Tom Weekly. You think you’ve made mistakes? I’ve made more. Every single word in this book is true. I do know someone with the worst case of nits in history. Stella Holling used chocolate to trick me into kissing her again. My sister, Tanya, truly is an evil genius. And as weird as it sounds, I really did ask Jack to help me mine my teeth for cash. It’s embarrassing, but it’s true. Bonus stuff inside this book: 1. Test your dad for Cranky Dad Syndrome 2. Make your own slime 3. Have your brain removed.
