Chapter Three
An idea goes wrong
Poppy’s idea was one of those amazing
ideas that stop you from sleeping. You
know what it’s like when you know the next
day is going to be brilliant. Excitement
whizzes around in your brain all night. Your
tummy does somersaults. There’s no way
of getting to sleep with all that going on.
None of the Gang got much sleep that
night then. But Mr Brown did. Sadly he fell
asleep reading the news AGAIN. This time
he was in BIG TROUBLE.
“I’ve had enough of this!” Miss Prune had
shouted – mainly to wake him up. “I can’t
have newsreaders who keep falling asleep!”
