The Demon Headmaster and the Prime Minister's Brain

You are not here to amuse yourselves…

Octopus Dare is the new computer game. All the kids at school are playing it. But no-one is any good at it – except Dinah. Soon all Dinah can think about is Octopus Dare. And when she wins a place at the Grand Final, it’s a dream come true. Or is it an obsession? Does Dinah want to win a bit too much? Her friends think so. They are determined not to let her go to the final alone. And soon they find themselves in a desperate situation, facing an old enemy: the Demon Headmaster.
