He's suddenly focused on earning extra pocket money and helping with everything. But nothing quite goes to plan. Washing and shrinking Delia's clothes isn't a good start. And the hours spent carefully cleaning cars with Derek are ruined overnight when a storm hits Oakfield Town, causing even more chaos. At this rate it's going to take a million years for Tom to get the art box of his dreams...or will it?"--Bookseller's website.
