Meet the Wizardson family of Freak Street.

Yes, they travel by Turbo-Broom. Yes, they stir up trouble in the Magic Cauldron Room. Yes, Wyman Wizardson can turn you into a frog. And yes, they're looking for a new dragon to fire-up their annual barbecue! But that's nothing out of the ordinary, right?

Wendy Wizardson is sure her new script will win Freak Street School the 'Best Musical' award in this year's finals. But can she convince TV beauty queen Lavelle Lovely to star in the production? And will the Wizardson's barbeque go ahead without any magical mayhem?

About the Freak Street Series

Reading age: 7+ years

Let's just say that on Freak Street there are some unusual families...

There are the Aliensons - just your average purple, one-eyed family from the planet Valvax-7. There are the Zombiesons. Slightly spooky, but forget terrorising graveyards and eating flesh, they prefer to eat takeaway in front of the TV. Let's not forget the Humansons - they're a little like you and me, only a lot more stupid! The Wizardsons have magic powers, a pet dragon and live in a giant mushroom! The Vampiresons are sharp-fanged vegetarians with a pet bat. And, finally, the Supersons all have mega-bizarro superhero powers and watch over Freak Street from their humungous skyscraper!

Filled with Knife & Packer's trademark colourful illustrations and bizarre humour, 'Freak Street' will be a hit with fans of 'Captain Underpants' or Andy Griffiths.
