How (Not) To Make Bad Children Good
Ever since she bit Father Christmas when she was six months old, it has been downhill all the way for Martha Bones. She is nasty to her baby brother and elder sister and her parents are tearing their hair out. Far away from Earth, Martha’s behaviour has come to the attention of the Interstellar Agency whose aim is to make bad children good.
