'A hilarious and entertaining story about a boy who does a series of odd jobs for his eccentric neighbours, from the bestselling creators of The Terrible Plop.

''How much money do I have in my piggy bank?' asked Hercules.
'Actually,' said Aunt Alligator, 'I don't think you have a piggy bank, Hercules.' 

'Hercules sighed. No piggy bank, no money. I need a job, he thought.That's what I need. 

'He got out his paints, his paintbrush and a big piece of plain paper. On the paper, he painted some words.
