Dare to step into someone else’s world for a day? The showman’s eyes sparkled when I volunteered.
Kaboom!
Woza bona! Woza bona!
Beep Beep Beeeeep!
Eish Wena!
A carousel of sounds filled the street. The vendors, cars and hundreds of people scuttled around. Screeeeeeech!
A blue taxi abruptly halted in front of me, music blaring. ”eOxford” I announced climbing in. Inside, happy faces sang aloud and swayed. Excitement filled me as I sat down. Just then I saw her, from my window, in her car, all-proper, in her crisp uniform. I smiled, amused. Just yesterday that was my silent world.

Matthew is a normal boy at Yellow Wood Primary. One day a grey, wait, no a yellow, wait... a green (it was changing colours!) thing came storming in. Then, two flashes of black (that looked like people) came and fought it. The thing looked like a bit of a Sockgribbler. Matthew went home. His parents, Liam and Jane, were not there. When they came back the next morning, Matthew found two black suits in the wash basket.
Could those heroes be his parents? If they were, Matthew still had two questions: was it the Sockgribbler and what else could his parents be up to?
