Reviews

I dislocated my jaw laughing
*Eoin Colfer, author of Artemis Fowl*

228/10 - That's an understatement.
*William, age 10*

Brilliantly silly
*Sunday Express*

Wicked illustrations that will help you tackle silly dangers. Made me laugh out loud and I know my friends at school will love it!
*Robyn, age 8*

Awesome jokes that made me laugh out loud ... one of the funniest books I have read.
*Isla, age 9*

I loved it because it is full of hilarious pictures . . . such as TEPOC - the Emergency Page Of Calm. Make a copy of this page and show it to your Mum when she is getting stressed!
*Ross, age 10*

Loved it! Really enjoyed it - favourite chapter was the danger pets
*Jennifer, age 7*

This book is very good for boys as it contains scary and rude things. . . !
*Tomasz, age 9*

A star turn that will amuse smart seven-year-olds, 17-year-olds, and, in our experience, 47-year olds . . . well-paced and funny throughout
*Time Out London*

A surreal, daft and funny book . . . A bracing satirical sideswipe at today's health-and-safety culture, aimed at kids who'll get the irony and relish the silliness.
*Financial Times*
