Shabba me whiskers! It’s one of those Mr Gum books by Andy Stanton. They’re only the craziest, funnest most amazing books for children in the world. Mr Gum in ‘The Hound of Lamonic Bibber’ Bumper Book Step once more into Lamonic Bibber my friends – if you dare. In the dead of night, when all the stars are sleeping and the moon’s nipped off for a coffee, something dark and sinister stalks the streets of Lamonic Bibber. As a fog rolls in from the sea, carrying with it the unmistakeable whiff of pancakes and utter dread, an unearthly howl echoes through the cold midnight air. But who – or what – is at work here? Shabba me suspense-filled whiskers, this one will require some serious detective work! This bigger, better, fatter, grislier, frisbier edition of the Mr Gum World Book Day book comes complete with super bonus material – which means more fun and frolics for you and your Snocklehead friends. Andy Stanton’s internationally best-selling series has won everything from the Blue Peter Book Award (twice) the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and the Red House Children’s Book Award. Praise for Mr Gum: ‘Smooky palooki! This book is well brilliant!’ – Jeremy Strong ‘Worryingly splendid’ – Guardian NOT FOR BORERS!

I have read this book

This book was really good, I laughed myself silly. I think my favourite character is Polly, a 9-year old girl who has the one goal of protecting her friendly town Lamonic Bibber from Mr Gum's evil plans. I would recommend this book to someone who needs to be cheered up, it really works.

Lots of bonus stuff. Friday O’Leary tells a story about Mr Gum and at the end there is lots of bonus stuff. It was good because it explained how Mr Gum and Billy William met.

I liked Mr Gum because it was kind of a mystery book and the detective was very funny. I would recommend this book to anyone because if is very funny and if you want to you can try and work out what is going to happen.

It was too funny! My favourite character was Old Granny because she was up in the middle of the night and Friday told her to go back home as she wasn't meant to be in that bit of the story!! I would recommend it to people who love funny books and who have read the Mr Gum books.

An amazing and very funny book, full of trickery and detecting. My favourite character was Polly, the protagonist- and the hero of the story. I would definitely and instantly recommend this for all ages.
