his mum and teachers seem constantly weary about his erratic,
high-energy ways. But when he sees a hypnotist
perform on stage at the holiday park he visits, Reggie becomes obsessed
with learning the skills of mind control
- and he discovers he has an incredible talent for it! First
of all he hypnotises the dog to think he's a frog, then makes
his headmaster cluck like a chicken in assembly in front of the
whole school - but then a group of mean kids supposedly take him
under their wing and make him use his hypnosis talents for bad:
stealing a chocolate bar from a shop and escalating to a bigger theft.
Reggie must decide to use his skills for good only and come
to trust his own brain to make decisions.
Packed with brilliant jokes and one-liners
