'Something very bad has happened to Alice Toolie. Her very pink and very sparkly diary (with a super cute picture of a baby echidna in a teacup on the cover) has been read by her very worst enemy—Jimmy Cook. It's war! Until Ms Fennel decides that Alice and Jimmy need to make peace. She insists that they become pen pals for the term to try and work out their differences . . . or find their similarities. Alice and Jimmy set off to navigate the choppy waters of third grade— including a joint class project and a ghostly mystery—through two very different sets of eyes. When these sworn enemies combine their many magnificent talents, it can only end in hilarious fun and gloop-y disaster!'
