Synopsis

A wonderful lyrical tale, humorously told in rhyming verse throughout. Enjoy this cautionary tale of Trucilla Applegate - the meanest big sister ever known. Having bullied her younger siblings since birth, they have finally been pushed too far...but how, exactly, are they planning their revenge? Featuring bonus tracks including the deliciously catchy 'Forgiveness Song' (including a beat-boxing Vicar and cameo appearances by both the author and illustrator) and with additional taster chapters from 'Ralph is (not) a Vampire' - another title by the same author/illustrator dynamic duo. Wonderfully narrated by Pab Roberts with original music composed by Gabrielle Amelia Ridgeon.
