Book description
When Billy the Skid and his nasty gang of mountain bikers ride into
Bodley Street and ride menacingly up and down, Danny and friends are
determined to fight back. They know bullies must be stopped - the
question is how? After a little thought, Danny comes up with an
ingenious plan and enlists the help of the twins, Daisy and Donna. All
will be well providing Danny can lure Billy into the spooky graveyard
and sprint through like dynamite!
A cheering story for new readers, with a cosy setting, a clear
triumph for Danny against the bully and told with lots of humour.
