A hilarious and entertaining story about a boy who does a series of odd jobs for his eccentric neighbours, from the bestselling creators of The Terrible Plop.

'Actually,' said Aunt Alligator, 'I don't think you have a piggy bank, Hercules.'

He got out his paints, his paintbrush and a big piece of plain paper. On the paper, he painted some words.
