Mr. Baboomski and the Wonder Goat
Richard Joyce (, Hertfordshire, UK), Freya Hartas (, UK)
Tom’s life takes a turn for the worse when his Dad ups sticks and moves them to Trefuggle Bay. But things get interesting when he meets two unusual new friends. Parked in an old caravan at the end of a cliff, live two legends of the Escorvian circus. The amazing Berto Baboomski and his performing goat Zoltan. Berto may be a crazy-looking nutcake with a bonkers moustache, but he’s full of circus wisdom – which he passes onto Tom, along with a few tricks. Soon Tom’s new found circus skills are put to the test as he, Berto, and Zoltan put on a show-stopping performance in order to save the town from some truly fishy goings on. As Berto would say ‘This skaboonky story will have you cheerzing like a nutcracker!’

It was very funny when they put on the show on the stage. I liked the funny words like patoof and babumska and wimply!

I quote liked this book because it was really funny. My favourite character was Mr Baboomski because he was very wise.For example, one of his quotes ‘The truth is at the bottom of your heart, but the power is at the heart of your bottom, I laughed at until tears fell from my eyes.
