Sterling and the Canary

by Andy Stanton Illustrated by Ross Collins

This book is dyslexia friendly.

Sterling Thaxton is in love. In love with Lizzie Harris - the beautiful new girl. Her hair is the colour of magic. Her nose is as sweet as music. Her arms are as slender as rainbows. Problem is, she's not interested. Luckily a small yellow canary turns up with some excellent advice. Hilarious comedy from the top selling author of the Mr Gum books.

Sterling Thaxton was the best-looking boy in the whole school. He was tall and strong and everyone admired his muscles, even the teachers. And he was amazing at sports. He could kick a football so high that when it came back down it had a suntan. He could whack a tennis ball so far that it could win a tennis match in a different town. He could run faster than all the other kids, even if they were on bikes. And all the girls at school fancied him. Every single one. One day a new girl turned up at school, like new girls sometimes do. One day they aren’t there at all. Then the next day – BINGO! – they just pop up like they’ve been there all along. As soon as he saw the new girl standing there like she’d been there all along, Sterling Thaxton was in love.
