]]> Simon is really fed up. More than anything in the world he wants his own computer. But with a baby in the house and his dad still looking for work his chances of ever getting one look pretty slim.

As Simon passes Peterson’s shop one evening, gazing at the fabulous display of computers, nothing seems out of the ordinary. But when the police start asking questions Simon suddenly realises he was the sole witness of a major burglary. The only problem is he can’t remember any of the details!

Simon’s Challenge was Theresa’s first novel and won the Kathleen Fidler Award.
