The second book describing the latest escapades of the Quigleys; comic and lovable, this 'ordinary' family creates yet more chaos in four hilarious stories.

Funny and instantly recognisable, the family go on a camping holiday to France, Mum stars in the skipping competition at the local village fete, Will gets locked in his empty school at night, and Dad (unsurprisingly) loses the budgie. Four more hilarious stories from this irrepressible and warmly affectionate family.
