"Fans of Griffiths, Gleitzman and Jennings will be thrilled to have this in their collection … What a great book." Kids Book Review


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 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.


Top 3 reasons to read this book:



  1. Cures for nits

  2. Hover underpants

  3. Instructions for teleporting
