Book description
From climbing and abseiling to canoeing and a Crazy Bucket Race,
Tim's adventure holiday promises to be full of action. There's just
one problem: he is hopeless at sports of any kind.
Can Tim survive the horrors of a week absolutely packed with
activity? Can his team - the Tigers - be the overall champions? There
are some surprises in store for everyone!
