Description

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!

From million-copy bestseller Matt Stanton, author of FUNNY KID and THE ODDS, comes a hilarious new series about the complicated business of being a kid.

PRAISE

'Milo Finds $105 is about friendships and how they can morph and evolve, and ... how first impressions are not always what they seem. The language between the kids is authentic and there is a strong sense of family in the book ... The chapters are short and engaging, which may inspire confidence in reluctant readers. Stanton, author of FUNNY KID and THE ODDS, looks to have produced another winning series'
- Books+Publishing

'all the sharp wit, funny dialogue and all round good times that we expect and love from a Matt Stanton experience but oh my heart, it was nostalgic, very clever with all the feels and the perfect book to help kids navigate through the complicated business of being a kid'
