Review
My kids are reading the Mr Gum books. SO GREAT (Lauren Laverne, BBC Radio 6 DJ, TV presenter, author and comedian)
They are fantastic...they are brilliant books for adults to read as well... I fully recommend them (Zoe Ball, live on BBC Radio 2)
They're the funniest books . . . I can't recommend them enough (Stephen Mangan)
Andy Stanton accumulates silliness and jokes in an irresitible, laughter-inducing romp (Sunday Times)
Raucous, revoltingly rambunctious and nose-snortingly funny (Daily Mail)
It provoked long and painful belly laughs from my daughter who is eight (Daily Telegraph)
As always, Stanton has a ball with dialogue, detail and devilish plot twists (Scotsman)

Andy lives in North London and likes cartoons, books and music (even jazz).
David Tazzyman studied illustration at Manchester Metropolitan University.
