ADHD.' The Guardian


This is the story of how hypnosis saved a boy.

Reggie Houser has ADHD and struggles to make friends at school,
plus his mum and teachers seem constantly weary about his erratic,
high-energy ways.


But when he sees a hypnotist perform on stage
at the holiday park he visits, Reggie becomes obsessed
with learning the skills of mind control - and he
discovers he has an incredible talent for it!


First of all he hypnotises the dog to think he's a frog, then
makes his headmaster cluck like a chicken in assembly in front of
the whole school


But then a group of mean kids supposedly take him under their
wing and make him use his hypnosis talents for bad: stealing a chocolate
bar from a shop and escalating to a bigger theft.


Reggie must decide to use his skills for good only and come to
trust his own brain to make decisions.





Packed with brilliant jokes and one-liners to make kids
roar with laughter

A book to encourage empathy and kindness in young readers


Perfect for fans of Jacqueline Wilson, Lisa Thompson
and Jenny Pearson.
