Birthday Boy

Aaargh! Sam is trapped in a world of birthdays! Hell or heaven? Read, laugh and decide! How much do you like birthdays? Sam loves them. The presents, the parties, the fuss. He’d have a birthday every day if he could. So on his eleventh birthday, that’s what he wishes for when he blows out the candles on his cake. And his wish comes true! Next day, it’s his birthday again. What could be more exciting? And the day after that. And the next day. What’s not to love? But then disaster strikes. Now it’s up to Sam to fix things. Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for…
