With Amos struggling to keep up with studies in secondary school, he has less time to serve as a toilet diarist. That’s where his sister Whoopie (infamously known as WPI) steps in. Her diary is different. She doesn’t follow any rule of thumb. She writes what she wants, when she wants, how she wants. From dabbling in playwriting to training the World’s First Human Poodle, Whoopie Lee will stop at nothing to prove that she is more talented than her brother! What did Amos call her—Whiny, Pesky and Irritating? No, never, she’s going to set the record straight.

The Diary of Amos Lee (I'm Twelve, I'm Tough, I Tweet!)

By: Adeline Foo

It’s my last year in primary school and I’m taking part in my school’s first Tween Idol contest! I got myself a Twitter Account to gain supporters. I’m furious that my arch enemy, Michael, is doing the same. Oh man, he’s everywhere—Facebook, IM, YouTube, you name it. But what he doesn’t realise is how popular I am. My secret weapon? My sister WPI (Whiny, Pesky and Irritating) and her two-girl band. She’s so popular these days it’s good to be her big brother. I’m kind of sad that my best friend, Alvin, is also running against me in the contest, but hey, may the best man win. Psst…I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve.

Girls, Guts and Glory!

By: Adeline Foo

I write my diary in the toilet to get away from my troubles, like having to compete with Michael, the bully who’s in the swim team with me, and falling out with my best friend, Alvin, over a girl! My diary goes wherever I go as there are those who want to read it. For I know secrets, like how to break my sister’s curse and how babies are made…

The Diary of Amos Lee (I Sit, I Write, I Flush!)

By: Adeline Foo

--Winner, Red Dot Book Awards 2009-2010, Junior Category-- This diary began as Mum’s New Year’s resolution to get me to write. She told me to write when I am doing my big business. “Five to eight minutes max!” she said. “I don’t want you to develop piles!” And so my writing in the bathroom began. My entries started with the boring old stuff…then Mum got this new job as a writer and, following her around, I got to do fun stuff, like ogle at deformed frogs, see into the future with a fortune-telling parrot and wow at a life-sized F1 car made of chocolate! That’s how I got more interesting things to write about. Plus, I had to deal with an EVIL bully who was tormenting me at school…thank goodness for my best friends, Alvin and Anthony, we rallied against the bully and got through the year with lots of adventures and good fun!

Lost in Taipei!

The Travel Diary of Amos Lee (Book 1)

By: Adeline Foo

11 days in TAIPEI, TAIWAN with my best friends. No naggy parents, no pesky siblings. I should be ecstatic, right? But nooo…Mum decided my first trip abroad should be culturally enriching. Which meant boring Chinese lessons. I told myself, stay positive! There’d be lots of bubble tea, all the street snacks I could find, sightseeing…

Monkeying in Malaysia!

The Travel Diary of Amos Lee (Book 2)

By: Adeline Foo

After a successful fundraising effort, I was off to Sarawak, Malaysia with my bros Alvin and Anthony for an exciting jungle trek! And, more importantly, I’d get to see my dear friend Jolin. (Mum calls her the “object of my infatuation”.) Our guide, Jolin’s weird “jungle man” Uncle Jufri, warned us to never let our guard down, for the rainforest is full of secrets and surprises. After getting drenched in a thunderstorm, and some icky encounters with mussels, toads, leeches and ants, we thought we’d seen and survived it all. But then there were those footprints, BIGGER THAN A HUMAN’S, that just couldn’t be explained.

Every Drop of Water

By: Elizabeth Adeline

Many years after the long summers I spent with my grandparents, Elizabeth and John Agnew on their farm Dunrora, in Redhills, Co Cavan, I decided to write about my memories. The journey there from Cambridge; joining in the hay-making; playing with cousins from Donegal; the dogs, cats, horses, goats, cows and chickens. Then I found I was also making maps of the places and drawings. The more I got into the memories the task of fetching a pail of drinking water from the well in Kivvy Wood became my main focus. A simple task with a profound meaning.
