The waiting is over for Joey Pigza fans! In this brilliant third book Joey is attempting a breath-taking balancing act as he tries to keep a handle on his wild, wired behaviour without letting his hyperactively helpful ways spin him out of control - again. Joey is being home-schooled alongside Olivia, a really sneaky, annoying girl, who is blind. He's still living with his mum and grandma, who is now dying, but his dad is also around - roaring past on his motorbike from time to time...
