    About this ebook

    Twelve-year-old Splodge Hodge lives with his family (Mum, Dad, Non-Existent Sister, and Phart the Dog) on an ordinary, peaceful housing estate somewhere in England.

    Peaceful, that is, until a new family moves in across the road. Well, what would you do if your neighbours from hell really were ... neighbours from hell?
