See agathabilke.com for the mini-site about the awful Agatha, from the famous series of books for 8-12 year olds. Paris Match, the latest epic, features Ag on a disastrous French exchange. Her host, Demone Canard, hates her and puts dog food in with her washing. Agatha escapes and chaos ensues…. she trashes the Paris Ritz by mistake, falls through a large hole, spends all her sister’s cash etc etc. You can order this marvellous tale from Amazon! Or go to an independent bookshop.
