A record-smashing feel-good adventure packed with heart humour and Guinness World Records from Costa Award-shortlisted JENNY PEARSON and Kid Normal illustrator Erica Salcedo

Lucy is a fixer of broken things. But there's one thing she can't fix and that's her unhappy mum. Until she comes up with an INCREDIBLE plan. Along with her best friend Sandesh Lucy is going to SMASH a world record.

Because she's convinced that starry Paul Castellini - Record Smashers TV host and singing legend - is the answer to her mum's problems. But breaking a world RECORD when watermelons kumquats two baddies and a 30 cm shatter-resistant school ruler are involved isn't quite as easy as Lucy thought. Can she learn that sometimes happiness doesn't come with a plan?
