Stuff Happens: Jack
by Tony Wilson (Author) Susannah McFarlane (Series Editor)
Stuff happens sometimes. Everyday stuff. At school, at home, with sport, with mates. For Jack it happened when a game at recess went wrong.
Jack is one of the sporty boys, and is always after a new game to play, particularly if he can invent one that allows him to tackle without getting caught. He and his friends invent You Play, You Pay, and things don't end well. When Jack, in pain and keen not to get in trouble, says it was Fadi's fault, he almost immediately regrets it, but can't take it back. Things go from bad to worse as Fadi gets into more trouble and Jack feels more and more guilty.
