What would you do if you woke up and discovered your skin had disappeared?
 
Willi is happily sleeping in his tent beside his grandparents’ caravan when an unexpected visitor changes everything. Snake has escaped from a secret laboratory, where strange experiments have given him the ability to talk, and change colour. But when a frightened Snake accidentally bites Willi, something extraordinary happens.
 
Willi can still feel his skin, but no one can see it. He has become a living skeleton!
 
There is little time to panic. Snake’s friend Monkey is still trapped inside the laboratory, and the scientists could return at any moment. With the help of his adventurous best friend, Merv, Willi gathers his homemade gadgets and sets out on a daring nighttime rescue.
 
Can the friends free Monkey without being discovered? And will Willi ever become visible again?
 
Willi Becomes a Skeleton is the first book in the Willi’s World series, a funny, fast-moving Australian adventure celebrating courage, friendship, imagination and helping those in trouble.
Ideal for children aged 6-9, developing independent readers, reluctant readers and families who enjoy sharing imaginative adventures together.
