Wheels is often found by Horatio’s side helping him both get into and then get out of tricky situations!
He zooms around on his turbo charged wheelchair with bright purple wheels, a security screen, oil-slick generator, smoke screen creator, golf ball expeller and flying capability. He loves electronic gadgets and sets up an alarm system in Horatio’s shed to warn them if someone is coming, and a booby trap to stop his sister, Pauline, going into his bedroom.
The turbo skates and pen phones he makes for Horatio and Ming prove very useful in saving them from disaster sometimes. Wheels is mature for his age because he has had to cope with the results of an accident in which his father died. He looks after his mother and Pauline, even though Pauline is sometimes a nuisance.
What do you like most about Wheels and his amazing wheelchair?
Wheels shows us that almost whatever life throws at us we can make the best of it. He’s brave, clever and caring; a great character and certainly my favourite in this series.
