In "Translating Aunt Edna", three boys decide to play a trick on their aunt, who insists on teaching them new vocabulary words. The English language can be complicated - there are so many words that describe the same thing! You’ll discover many of them in this silly story about a group of siblings who decide they are sick of learning new words!

Save 10 lives with a paperclip, discover how a big banana can ruin your sister's holiday, make a new friend with a garbage bin, develop a taste for sheep's spleen and chips, bounce on a vampire's bed, rescue your dad from a dog and a spider, use a toilet roll to get justice, upset the neighbours with a pickaxe, eat a pizza that makes you fearless and imagine a world where teachers earn more money than a rock star.

You'll find stories here about comic book characters that come to life, a fantastical submarine who's entrance is hidden near a baseball field, a magical world that exists inside a young boy's room, a talking pimple, a mysterious guitar man that helps two young boys, and a wonderful story about a young girl's tree house and the animals that come to crash her tea party!

Alex Goodwin tackles everything from curling tournaments to high-stress bakery jobs to incredibly inventive (in the wrong way!) midnight tours of Igor’s castle to the hardship of aglet manufacturing to the satisfaction of homecoming (even if that home happens to be a bomb-testing field in the Death Valley).

"We haven't seen you since the explosion! We'd love to have you visit!" And so start the adventures. What happens next is chronicled in Problem Cousin and Other Funny Stories, a new book by Alex Goodwin. From chasing burning Christmas trees down steep mountains to ending world-wide banana shortages, Bob and Billy will take you on an adventure like never before.

This is an excellent listen for early and beginning readers with fun Christmas stories and hilarious jokes. Perfect for listening aloud during the holidays. These stories are great as quick bedtime stories and cute tales to be listened to aloud with friends and family.
