Product Description

Well, Shabba Me whiskers! Mr Gum's back! But what's he up to this time? Oh, dreadful things my friends, dreadful things indeed. It seems he's found himself a brand new treat - rancid kebabs just dripping with dirty grey sauce. And he just can't get enough of them. He's gotta have more! More! Less! I mean, More! But not everyone's too happy about Mr Gum's new dinnertime arrangements and soon the town of Lamonic Bibber is gearing up for war. Can Polly and her friends save the town from being torn apart? Will Mr Gum's hunger ever be satisfied? And who on earth is Thora Gruntwinkle? All will be revealed when you read "What's For Dinner, Mr Gum?" You'll see a gingerbread man driving through London! You'll see an annoying little monkey driving everyone mad! You'll see Friday O'Leary falling asleep in a hedge! Yes, it's all there in glorious black and white, my friends. Except for the cover, which is in colour. It's Bonus.

Review
"* 'Smooky palooki! This book is well brilliant! Andy Stanton is far too clever and funny and should be locked away in a very dark place that nobody can find.' Jeremy Strong; 'A wickedly entertaining story' Bookseller"

7th GREAT BOOK!!!!!! + Hilarious Features like how the "Credit Crunch" started!!!!! And Alan Tayler's old Taxi and a Bonus story!!! And the fun's all in this book!!!!

Best of Luck, Alec

Too good to be true!
Mr Gum is the best book ever - it is cool and dangerously funny. This one is particularly funny because Billy falls in love and the monkey(Phillip the horror) is so funny. I read one every day because I have the complete set. BUY THIS BOOK!

Disgustingly Fabulous!
I love reading these books to my 7 year old son - they are truly refreshingly original and great to read aloud together. If you're a fan of Roald Dahl's dark humour and don't mind a bit of completely bonkers writing with disgusting bits thrown in, you should purchase these for your son too. We found them hilarious, and are both thrilled there's a new one out this month! Andy Stanton you're a genius...
