This book is about
Jack and Shazia were looking out of the window and saw a boy that looked like Jack. They decided to talk to him. His name was Oliver.
They all went to Shazia's garden and decided that Jack and Oliver would swap places at school for a day.
At Oliver's school, Jack finds out that Oliver is actually naughty at school and always in trouble.
Shazia sends a text message to Jack to tell him about Oliver trying to flood the boys toilets. Jack goes to his own school, but is wearing Oliver's school uniform. He has to convince Mr. Brody that he is Jack and that Oliver is to blame for the flooding in the toilets.
The main characters are
Jack, Oliver and Shazia.
My favourite part of the book is
When Mr. Brody spills his coffee.
I would also like to say
It was actually Oliver that flooded the boys toilets.

This book is about
In this book, there is a boy called Jack who meets another boy who is identical to him called Oliver. They swap schools for a day.
When Jack goes to Oliver's school he finds a £10 note and the teacher thinks he has stolen it and sends him to see the head teacher. Jack finds out how many times Oliver has mis-behaved in school.
Jack escapes from the head teacher's office and runs to his own school. He finds Shazia and she tells him that Oliver is flooding the boys toilets. Jack tries to stop him by turning the taps off, but Mr. Brody (a teacher) walks in and Oliver immediately blames Jack for the flood.
Luckily, Shazia has an idea. She asks Oliver if he can curl his tongue and he can. She reminds Mr. Brody that Jack was not able to do that and the teacher realises that Oliver is not Jack (and should not be in the school) and that he is to blame.
The main characters are
Jack, Oliver and Shazia.
My favourite part of the book is
When Jack finds out Oliver has been mis-behaving in school a lot.
I would also like to say
The author wrote this book because someone had once stolen his identity.
