The Great Shave

A wild and colourful adventure in the exciting new Lightning Strikes series.

Stix reckons he’s the Screaming Greenie Meanies biggest fan, so when the band holds a concert in his town, Stix and his mates just have to go. And to get into the spirit of the event, they decide to dye their hair green. Stix’s mates use green hair mousse -- but there’s not enough for Stix. In desperation he uses green food colouring, and the consequences are devastating. But Stix is able to use his misfortune to his advantage and becomes a legend instead of a joke!

About The Author

Born in NZ last century, Clare has tried lots of things in her life, such as manufacturing, nursing, selling, administrating, wife-ing, mothering, nana-ing, teaching, and writing. All of these things involve using lots of words, but of course, Clare says writing is the best! Clare has a patient and quiet husband, three grown and noisy children, and is a proud nana. There’s the furry family too - two dogs and two cats. They are good at listening, keeping feet warm, and leaving fur around the house. Clare’s hobbies include writing (surprise!), reading, the boat, the beach and the bush, writing, and doing things with family, friends and the dogs. And writing!
