Synopsis

Recommended for ages 9+.

A nail-biting – make that toe-biting – thrill ride through one boy's life. The first instalment in the Tom Weekly series from the award-winning author Tristan Bancks.

I'm Tom Weekly. This is a nail-biting – make that toe-biting – thrill ride through my life.

This is where I pour out whatever's inside my head. Like the time a bloodthirsty magpie was out to get me, or when I had to eat Vegemite off my sister's big toe. And don't forget the day I ate 67 hot dogs in ten minutes. My life gets a bit weird sometimes but that's how I roll.
