New Zealand titles - children

Out of print, advised 12/12/2005. Reading age 9 to 14 years. New edition of the same title first published in 1994. Thomas's rich best friend has always invited him to join his family on their really cool holidays. This time it's to go to America! Disneyland, New York, L.A., a boy's dream. But this time Mum puts her foot down, Thomas must find someone else to spend time with over the holidays. But none of his other friends are interested in asking Thomas to join them because he is "used to life in the fast lane". Nowhere to go and nothing to do, how boring and totally unfair! But then a chance of fooling around with a car wreck on a nearby field looks like changing this into a really cool holiday after all.
