    'A hilarious and charming story about a boy and his fishy friend who do a series of odd jobs for their eccentric neighbours, from an Australian Children's Laureate and the bestselling creators of The Terrible Plop.

    'Ursula Dubosarsky was the Australian Children's Laureate 2020-2021

    'Hercules Quick wants to be a magnificent magician. He just needs a special box of magic tricks. But the box is expensive, and Hercules doesn't have any money. Luckily, Hercules lives in a big apartment block with Aunt Alligator and his tadpole friend, Sylvie, and he has plenty of neighbours who are willing to pay for his help. Whether it's babysitting for the Elks, spring-cleaning for Queen Claude, or helping Professor Calamari choose the perfect bow tie, no job is too odd for Hercules Quick!

    'Join the enterprising Hercules on his neighbourhood adventures as he discovers that sometimes the best magic of all is not a trick.' (Publication summary)
