Animal Calamity

Warning: the fish dies.
Extra warning: the fish dies in a way that seems a bit grisly. So be ready for that. OK, now you can read the book. Tom is a boy with a gift: whenever he gets near animals, something goes disastrously wrong. So it's not a magical gift or a troll's curse or genetic engineering or anything that would stand up in court, it's just that it keeps happening. And here's the first story about that. And this one is mostly true. They won't all be true, but this one is. Hilarious and really quite silly story about the time Tom's goldfish met a sticky end.
