Do your little darlings sometimes give you a real headache? They do? Then read this book with them. No family therapy could be more entertaining!

Be ready for you and your kids to have some fun. Marek has a “horrible” brother. At least that’s how he sees it. Marek calls his brother Weirdo. The thing is, at a certain age all younger siblings are horrible, because the age difference is as deep as the Mariana Trench. Any excuse will do for a fight or an act of spite, with no let -up at weekends. On this day as on all others, the brothers are pushing and shoving each other. Then something goes wrong in the bathroom, and they find themselves falling down the toilet. Having slipped through a narrow pipe, they arrive in a maze of more pipes. This isn’t as impossible as you might think, especially when you’re six and three quarters. Getting out of this mess will be no easy matter. Our little heroes will have more than one setback to contend with. In fact, without the help of readers, the case would be hopeless. This interactive illustrated book is for siblings large and small.
