"The needle, nurse," said Dr Moribundus. It was five feet long, like a javelin. Lorelei Lee whimpered

What terrible cure lies in store for the girl who feigns illness when it's time to go to school? And what about Serena Slurp, the greedy guzzler who can't stop gorging? Or Johnny Bullneck, the bully who gets his fingers burnt (and more!). And Bessy O'Messy, whose bedroom is like a bomb pit. Or Well'ard Willard, who tells his last lie - and doesn't live to regret it.

Grim and ghastly fates await fiendish kids with horrible habits. Prepare to laugh, gasp and squirm as you read these brilliant cautionary tales. Now on TV!

"Moral tales, told in honey-lush prose spiced with salutary bolts of carbolic. If only real life were like this!" BK
