Judge Bex

Sean has had enough! Every time he wins, receives, or buys treats like marshmallows and Toblerone, Dad just can’t resist. Is it a harmless household sharing culture, or a serious case of snack theft? Dad Adrian says he just couldn’t help it but Sean wants justice… and his chocolate back.
Meanwhile, Billy just wants to hang out and play Pokémon with his big brother Alexander – but Alexander would rather read or play chess than another round of battles. Is it fair for Billy to keep asking? Should Alexander be forced to play Pokémon if he’s not feeling it?
Lauren and Connor reflect on the cases. Should treats always be shared? Is Judge Bex's suggestion of a "supermarket sweep" a fair price for snack theft? Is it a big sibling’s duty to entertain a younger one?

This week, we’re diving into three brilliant books packed with heart, mystery and magic.
First, The Boy at the Back of the Class by Onjali Rauf tells the story of a group of classmates who notice the new boy is quiet, lonely and far from home — and decide to come up with a plan to help him.
Then, The Blitz Sisters by Judith Eagle takes us to wartime London for a gripping mystery, as two sisters uncover secrets, face danger and navigate the chaos of the Blitz.
And in Skandar and the Secret Element by A. F. Steadman, Skandar is pulled even deeper into a thrilling world of elemental magic and fierce unicorns, where powerful new abilities bring even bigger challenges.
That's all on this week's episode of Fun Kids Book Quest!

Baird is frustrated – his parents have been to lots of places, but he’s only ever been to London. Dad says many trips were before Baird was born. What can be done? Turns out, even a Holiday Inn sounds fun!
Meanwhile, Sisters Elsie and Isabel are at odds. Elsie is a prolific letter-writer, sliding up to 100 notes under Isabel’s door, despite their rooms being three meters apart! Isabel’s complaint: It’s repetitive, distracting, and sometimes she just bins the notes. But maybe letter writing is also a handwriting helper?

Stefano doesn’t appreciate his mum Francesca’s jokes and wants them to stop. Francesca claims her humour is genetic and can’t help making cracks about lamb at Easter... Judge Bex prescribes a household stand-up comedy competition with the fate of joke-telling hanging in the balance.
Meanwhile. Tess’s desk is an alleged disaster zone, but she claims it’s organised chaos. Mum insists on tidiness, but is her own “bench of clothes” setting the best example – if she’s expected to tidy, mum should practice what she preaches!
Is it ever okay for parents to make cringe jokes? Should 'messy desk, creative mind' override 'tidy house, tidy mind'?

Joseph and Milo are two brothers at odds over their shared LEGO collection. Joseph’s been working for months on a giant LEGO city using ALL the train tracks and road pieces. Milo wants to start building his own epic railway in his bedroom but he can’t get the tracks back... Whose lego is it anyway?
Meanwhile, Holly wants her well-earned weekend lie-ins, but Dad never feeds the family dog first thing meaning it’s up to Holly, awakened by Luna the Labrador’s desperate whimpers, to stumble out of bed at dawn! Who’s actually responsible for feeding the family pet? Is Dad being lazy, or are Holly and her siblings learning responsibility?
With a surprise star witness and Dad’s not-so-solid defence, Judge Bex weighs up the family’s arguments.
