EGBERT FARTHING (Book 6)

EGBERT FARTHING is the new boy appearing to join the the Wordsworth Academy in the last week of the school year for Year Seven. This does strike Robbie and Dylan as being a little odd. But more concerning, is the boy's enormous size, and thinking this could make him a bullying target by certain members of their class, and agree that they must keep an eye out. As it happens, the lad soon becomes their friend at school and is welcomed at Robbie's home.
Of course, there is the inevitable hilarious fantasy, with William and Scruffy - could this be where Egbert's true friendship and generosity comes through?
