Nov 18, 2024 12:19 PM

Author:Mark Haddon

Ben's a born daydreamer. He's much rather be in the Sahara, or on a Viking ship than sitting in a boring maths lesson. Then Agent Z appears on the scene - and THAT means secret missions, cunning plans and careful strategies. And soon Ben and his friends, Barney and Jenks, realize that life on planet earth is RATHER exciting after all!

Reviews

Slipping effortlessly between reality and a rich fantasy world, this is a breathless action from start to finish

—— Guardian

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

Brilliantly funny

Imagine the Mighty Boosh crashed into the Wimpy Kid
