Life
- is
- never
- easy
- for
- Archie
- Roach,
- but
- some
- days
- it
- gets
- downright
- perplexing.
- He's
- not
- much
- good
- at
- anything,
- he's
- got
- the
- meanest
- mum
- in
- the
- whole
- universe
- and
- now
- some
- little
- kid
- wants
- him
- to
- save
- his
- granddad's
- house,
- all
- because
- he
- read
- about
- Archie
- winning
- a
- fishing
- competition.
- And
- as
- if
- that
- wasn't
- enough,
- a
- total
- maniac
- psycho
- tagger's
- moved
- into
- town.
- the
- tagger's
- already
- run
- foul
- of
- Community
- Constable
- Wang,
- who's
- given
- him
- one
- last
- chance
- and
- forced
- him
- to
- join
- Archie's
- Sea
- Scout
- pack.
- It's
- just
- not
- fair
- -
- you
- shouldn't
- have
- so
- many
- problems
- when
- you're
- only
- twelve.
- But
- Archie
- is
- no
- ordinary
- kid,
- and
- his
- ducking
- and
- diving
- will
- have
- you
- in
- stitches
- as
- he
- deals
- with
- life
- in
- his
- own
- amazing
- way.
- this
- is
- Archie's
- second
- series
- of
- adventures,
- once
- again
- written
- by
- Leonie
- thorpe,
- who
- lives
- in
- Lyttelton
- with
- her
- daughters.
- While
- reading
- the
- first
- book
- would
- be
- helpful
- and
- fun,
- it's
- not
- essential
- to
- enjoy
- a
- rollicking
- series
- of
- misadventures
- and
- escapades
- in
- a
- small
- coastal
- town
- with
- a
- fine
- boating
- tradition
- and
- a
- very
- unusual
- troop
- of
- sea scouts.
