Madison Flight refuses to be born for five days. She comes out eventually - kicking, screaming, and scarred for life by forceps - but it isn t long before her mother, Cynthia, realises the terrible truth: she has given birth to the world s first arguing baby.

Cyntha s husband Mitchell soon takes off in terror, leaving her to raise their quarrelsome rugrat with only the help of the next door neighbour Shirley - a sadistic retired nurse who detests children.

Madison s young life is full of proud milestones: at the age of one she breaks the world record for the number of times anyone has said the word no during a two week Spanish package holiday - 4,477 times - and she gets better with practice. Lots of practice.

This is the story of a girl who wanted to be right rather than happy. This is the story of the girl who couldn t stop arguing.

Melissa Kite is a freelance journalist and columnist for the Spectator and GQ.
