    About this ebook

    The paper boys
    on Weir Street don't normally stick around for long ... It's definitely
    weirder than your average street. After venturing past all the strange
    houses, number 57 looks suspiciously normal. The garden is neat and the
    letterbox is gleaming. But then the letterbox nearly snaps his fingers
    off and the door opens to reveal the tall and imposing figure of Violet
    King. If Miss King's connection with Viking warriors is only through her
    ancestry then why has she got a helmet on the table?





    The Weird Street mini-series
    follows Jonny on his bizzare, scary and extremely unusual paper round,
    where he bumps into a whole range of oddballs and mysterious neighbours.
