Product Information
An explosive and hilarious adventure for younger readers from the bestselling author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
"An explosive adventure" The Bookseller "A wildly energetic and anarchic adventure involving kidnaps and scooter rides, with the children trying to outwit the evil or incompetent adults (not terribly difficult). Great fun for young readers" Daily Mail "One to read aloud" The Sunday Times "Funny, pacey adventure that blends a fairly kitchen sink set of family dynamics with some utterly zany fantasy. There is a big whiff of Roald Dahl anarchy about it ... A crackling little story" thebookbag.co.uk "A funny, exciting read" Carousel
