The Diary of Amos Lee (I Sit, I Write, I Flush!)
--Winner, Red Dot Book Awards 2009-2010, Junior Category-- This diary began as Mum’s New Year’s resolution to get me to write. She told me to write when I am doing my big business. “Five to eight minutes max!” she said. “I don’t want you to develop piles!” And so my writing in the bathroom began. My entries started with the boring old stuff…then Mum got this new job as a writer and, following her around, I got to do fun stuff, like ogle at deformed frogs, see into the future with a fortune-telling parrot and wow at a life-sized F1 car made of chocolate! That’s how I got more interesting things to write about. Plus, I had to deal with an EVIL bully who was tormenting me at school…thank goodness for my best friends, Alvin and Anthony, we rallied against the bully and got through the year with lots of adventures and good fun!
Whoopie Lee (Almost Famous)
With Amos struggling to keep up with studies in secondary school, he has less time to serve as a toilet diarist. That’s where his sister Whoopie (infamously known as WPI) steps in. Her diary is different. She doesn’t follow any rule of thumb. She writes what she wants, when she wants, how she wants. From dabbling in playwriting to training the World’s First Human Poodle, Whoopie Lee will stop at nothing to prove that she is more talented than her brother! What did Amos call her—Whiny, Pesky and Irritating? No, never, she’s going to set the record straight.

The arrival of a new girl in class my new baby brother a brand new magazine by Anthony and me and a new pet cat meant that there was plenty of stuff happening and I have had to furiously scribble away to keep pace with all the new adventures and excitement in my life including spider babies and lizard’s eggs! And then there are parts that are even more fascinating for I know secrets like how to break my sister’s terrible curse how to win a race and how ba
