Strange Things Can Happen On A Tuesday (Paperback)

Brandon hates Tuesdays. Nothing exciting ever happens on a Tuesday. Every Tuesday Grandma Ella picks him up after school. Then they go to the library, where Grandma and her friends always meet in the garden behind the library. There they drink tea and talk about books.

‘Find yourself a book to read,’ Grandma says every Tuesday. But Brandon never wants to.

The only other kid who spends every Tuesday afternoon there, is the mysterious Book Girl. The Book Girl never speaks to anyone. She just sits there, her back against a tree and her nose in a book.

But one afternoon, Brandon kicks a ball ... and also kicks off a wild adventure, filled with magical creatures, riddles and breathtaking action.

In this wonderfully weird, funny story filled with trolls, dragons, gnomes and other magical creatures, Jaco Jacobs creates a modern fairy tale that celebrates the wonder of books and the imagination. Fitting themes for the 300th book by this exceptional author.
