About the Book

A bumper bind-up of two fantastic stories about the friends from the After School Club. In Sammie's Back, all Sammie wants is for her mum and dad to get back together - so she makes a wish and tries to make it come true. But the reality is not nearly as good as the dream, and when things go horribly wrong Sammie feels like a failure. Especially as all her friends seem to have such perfect families - why can't hers be like that?

Brody's also having problems in Brody's Back - she's finding life a bit hard. Everyone always relies upon her - but there's nobody there for her when she needs some help. Even her best buddy's let her down. She decides that enough's enough - Mrs Fryston can find someone else to captain the Book Quiz, and all the others can just get off her case.
