| Jake's mum looked at his foot. She pulled a face. "Yuk! Look at those toenails!"
Jake's toenails had grown very long.
"I'll cut them for you," said the doctor. He cut the little toenail.
"Ah! Aha ha ha ha ha!" Jake laughed. "Stop! You're tickling! Stop!"
Jake breaks his foot and it is put in plaster, so his toenails grow very long. Different people manage to trim four of his toenails, but the nail on the big toe is left to grow. Soon Jake has the longest toenail in the world. On the way to the pool, he gets fertiliser on this toenail. His nail grows so quickly it forms a huge cage around Jake. Jake is cut free, and the toenail now plays a vital role at the pool!
The World's Longest Toenail is a full-colour chapter book part of the wonderful Gigglers series. |
