Boy Brainy — Jenny O'Brien

For fans of R J Palacio, Amy Wilson and Lisa Thompson.Dai Monday is being bullied, but what does he expect with a name like Die! He doesn't think life can get any worse and then it does. What's hidden in Conwy Castle that has all the crooks in a frenzy and where does the ghost of King Arthur come into it all?Dai Monday's Boy Brainy is aimed at children age 7 to 11 years (middle graders). There's ghosts and dragons (obviously), magic and mayhem - in fact all of the elements of an exciting story that finds a little boy chasing around Conwy Castle in the search of King Arthur's Crown, a crown that actually existed.
