'Sometimes feeling bored is just the beginning ...

'Hi, I'm Milo, and right now I'm chasing $105 as it flies down my street. The wind is blowing it towards Evie Watson's house, which is very bad news. It's also making for some pretty awkward running.

'My neighbours, Rocco, Luisa and Zak, must be laughing their heads off. And who knows what's happening with the new kid next door. His name is Frog and he's invented his own type of martial art, which he's not very good at even though he made it up.

'Finding this much money should have been a good thing, but it's turning into a disaster!' (Publication summary)

'Sometimes feeling bored is just the beginning ...

'My name is Frog and this may have been a very bad idea. I've started at this new school and when you're trying to fit in the best thing you can do is just try something totally crazy! Right?

'Well, it seemed like a good plan. Only now Luisa has decided I'm her favourite person to make fun of, Evie thinks I'm completely nuts, Milo's grumpy about something or other and I'm about to tell everyone the whole story about my secret twin brother with the same name. True story! I swear.

'I can get myself in all sorts of trouble when I'm bored ...' (Publication summary)

'Sometimes feeling bored is just the beginning ...

'My name is Evie and I'm making plans. Actual plans. I'm going to build my own house. I'm not talking about some silly treehouse either. I'm going to build a real house.

'Only it seems everyone else who lives in Turtle Place has an opinion they'd like to share. Frog and Milo want to build something totally different, Mr Santos is grumpy, Mrs Katz is spying on us, my sister is the most annoying person on earth and my parents don't believe in me at all. But I have a plan!

'I have big dreams when I'm bored ...' (Publication summary)
