Tom Weekly 1: My Life and Other Stuff I Made Up

A laugh-out-loud collection of stories about a boy who can’t help but stretch the truth.

“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.
