Doctor Who: Doctionary

Have you ever wondered what the Doctor is actually talking about? Are you burning to find out what the Blinovitch Limitation Effect is? Or what regeneration really is? In this book, the Doctor takes you through all those tricky Time Lord words and phrases to teach you everything you need to know for travelling through time and space in the TARDIS with him.

Reviews

This is a well-presented edition of a real classic, and I hope it helps it find the new audience it deserves

—— The Bookbag

Both boys - me in 1955, my son in 1996 - seemed to be drawn into this story in some way beyond the usual...The main pleasure of the book is in the way in which it plays to the fantasy of omnipotence in a child: that a team of kids could really organise themselves into a team of detectives and catch a thief

—— Michael Rosen , Guardian

A great political story: democracy in action

—— Philip Pullman , Ten books every Year 7 child should read

The perfect introduction to the world of fictional crime detection

—— Independent

Emil is a wonder... the book had, and still has, the effect of making me feel part of Emil's little gang of boys... Emil and the Detectives is a little masterpiece... Read it and you will be happy

—— Maurice Sendak

Emil for me personally is very important, but also it's very important in the history of children's books, and again it reminds us that Germany is not just simply about the period 1933 to 1945

—— Michael Rosen , BBC News
