I used to love this story when I was younger. I remember I once went to sleep with gum in my mouth and woke up with it in my hair. So I could relate to what he was going through. This story shows kids that everyone has bad days and some are just worse then others. I think it is a good lesson for people to learn because children might not understand that. I don't get why he likes Aistralia so much though. They mention it a few times through out the story and I don't get it. Maybe that's his favorite place or something. Another part I could relate to was when he talked about the desserts. My friends parents always packed them cookie dough and stuff. My mom told me that it wasn't good for me and never gave me any of the good snacks. It always made me so mad and I would try to sneak it. I love this story because I can remember reading it as a child.
