Bram Botermans thinks he is perfect! There is nothing left to improve about him. But you and I know better: Bram will always remain a loser. Only someone has to explain that to his father. He still thinks he can make a real man out of his son: good at team sports and other manly things like camping. Just try it!, thinks Bram and he becomes a reserve goalkeeper on the football team. In the summer, his parents threaten to send Bram to a military summer training camp. They can make a real man out of him there. Bram realizes that he has no choice: become an adult or become a victim of tough soldiers. How should he handle this now? Author: Jeff Kinney. Contents: 223 pages. Edition: hardcover.
