Review
"The Bookseller said: 'A wickedly entertaining story for young readers... very funny and made me giggle out loud'; The Sunday Times said: 'Andy Stanton accumulates silliness and jokes in an irresistible, laughter-inducing romp'; Philip Ardagh for the Guardian said: 'Worryingly splendid'; Danny Baker from LBC Radio said: 'This is a riot, it is hilarious, it is brilliant... best book I've read in a long time.'"
Product Description
Shabba me whiskers This is barking bonkers...Well, that old roo-de-lally Mr Gum and the hideous Billy William the Third are once more mucking things up for everyone. They're a-schemin' and a-hatchin' an' making their bad plans up on Goblin Mountain. Can the wise old man Friday O'Leary and the small girl Polly make it past the Three Impossible Challenges of Goblin Mountain and save the town from a fate worse than something very bad indeed? In an epic tale of courage, valour and plain idiocy only one thing is sure: The truth is a lemon meringue!

Number 3 keeps the giggles coming - and it has a plot, a plan, and a scheme, Mar 17 2012

This review is from: Mr. Gum and the Goblins (Paperback)
This time it's trouble brewing up on Goblin Mountain, don't you know.It's a rollicker and a frolicker, you little nibbleheads. Polly and Friday and Alan Taylor and Jake the Dog are always saving the Town of Lamonic Bibber from evil Mr. Gum and Billy William the Third. Shabba me whiskers, but this is exciting stuff.
It's silly, but not dumb. It's inventive, but not obscure. It's shrewd, but not condescending. It's dry, but not with that odd Dahl aftertaste. And for my little ones, it has been engaging, amusing, and very popular. They can be avant-garde before they're kindergarde.
So, if you've been waiting for post-modern to reach pre-school, here it is.

My 9 year old son loves these books. We bought every one. He enjoys the humor and the pictures make him feel as if the book isn't overwhelming.

Mr. Gum and Goblins (fantastic), Sep 7 2009
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mr. Gum and the Goblins (Paperback)
Read this book in 2 days it's that good and i'm only 8. It's a funny English commedy about a girl named Polly and her friend 'Friday O'Leary'. This is book number 3 and mum is about to order the next 2. I'm hooked!These are the best books I've ever read - even better than 'Diary of a wimpy Kid.'
