About this listen

I'm Tom Weekly. If my life is an exploding chicken, this audiobook is my attempt to glue it back together.

I have a few confessions. I've done a runner from the dentist. I'm petrified of clowns. Giant headlice tried to eat me. A lost sock nearly killed me. And you're not going to believe this, but I was attacked by Library Ninjas when my book was five years overdue. Let my life be a warning to you.

Plus, how to get famous by:

1. Clapping

2. Collecting scabs

3. Knitting

Critic reviews

'What an exhilirating ride it is to follow the misadventures of Tom Weekly … Delightful and funny. Bancks has beautifully captured the essence of boyhood. Tom is a typical 21st-century schoolboy, following in the fine tradition of Ginger Meggs ... Best of all, it made me laugh.' (Good Reading Magazine)
