OverviewHONOUR BOOK: CBCA Book of the Year, Younger Readers, 2017 Jimmy Cook has discovered that he has quite a lot in common with the explorer Captain James Cook. No doubt they were related. So when he finds out that Captain Cook met with a sticky end in Hawaii, he's determined to travel to the island to finish what he started. His parents aren't so interested but luckily Jimmy's favourite brand of cereal is running a competition. First prize: a Hawaiian Holiday. Jimmy is going to have to eat a lot of full-fibre Wheetblocks to enter, but big dreams come with a big price. And no price is too big when it comes to Captain James Cook especially if it means beating the world's most annoying person, Alice Toolie.
