Every week Marty wins a big red juicy jelly baby for being the best boy in the world. Now his younger brother Will is challenging him for the prize - and Marty's not giving up that giant delicious sweet for anybody. How can Marty get rid of Will without Mum and Dad noticing? There is a way, he just needs Will to fall for one little trick...
Every Saturday, while helping polish the lens of the lighthouse his grandfather tends, nine-year-old Will tells a tale he hopes will top Grandad's, but Grandad always wins until Dad reminds Will of a long-forgotten escapade with his brother.
