I think the best number in the whole universe is eight. My friend, Asim, likes numbers about as much as me, but he likes them all - odd or even. Esmarelda, though, who lives across the street, isn't so fond of numbers and she hates math. Singing's more her thing. She's really good, too - nearly as good as my mum. Mum's a professional singer, or was, until we had to move. The worst number in the universe, though, is seven. For a start, it's an odd number, and it's thin and sharp and mean-looking, like a medieval scythe. So when I saw 777 on that Mustang's license plate, I knew it was the start of something bad. And I was right.

Together, and yet miles apart, Mitch and Sue must work through their respective problems.

They spend most of their time throwing one-handed boxing matches (they only have the one pair of gloves) and plotting to rob the local dentists.

When Brian ('call me Brain - everyone does') awakes to a truly putrid pong he knows it is up to him and his friend Nerf to neutralise it.

You'll meet my super-angry grandpa, and hear about my best non-human friend, Rarnald the rat. You'll find out why I've been banned from KidsWorld.

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.
