Other editions of book Why Can't I Play?

It’s the summer holidays, and a new girl arrives at the park. She’s mean and bossy. She boasts about her house, with its lake full of boy-eating crocodiles and other worse hazards. When the girl’s mother hands out party invitations, the children are not keen to go, but their parents think the party is a lovely idea. The new girl’s house does not have any horrible hazards, and the party is great fun. When it comes to blowing out the candles, the new girl makes a wish… that she could play with the children.
