Lockie Leonard - Series One - The Domino Effect

Lockie Leonard, hot surf rat, is twelve and three quarters years old. Lockie and his family have just moved to the most remote town on earth, Angelus. For Lockie this is a disaster: no friends, new school and a house that is truly in danger of disappearing into a swamp. Then Lockie spots the one thing that makes it all okay. This weird little town has the best surf he has ever seen. Not that this necessarily helps him survive his frighteningly understanding parents, his father's job as the local police sergeant, a little brother who can't stop wetting the bed, a new friend 'Egg' who is a heavy metal devotee and the attentions of the cutest girl in school, Vicki Streeton. It can only mean worry, embarrassment, wild times and lots of weirdness. Lockie ponders the notion of the domino effect: how one small event can trigger a series of other smaller events, leading to big, potentially life-changing results. After suffering at the hands of the domino effect himself, Lockie decides to put the theory to positive use, attempting to change Vicki and Egg's home lives for the better. Meanwhile, Phillip is working hard to effect change, becoming obsessed with feng shui, with mixed results!
