Synopsis

Beanotown - for the first time in Dennis's life - has become boring. All Dennis's pranks are backfiring and he seems to have lost his awesomeness. Even his faithful hound, Gnasher, seems fed up with him these days. If only there was some way to bring the fun back to Beanotown...

When Dennis hears about the legendary Golden Pea-shooter of Everlasting Fun, it sounds like the only thing that can solve his problems and return his hometown to its former glory. With the help of his cousin, Minnie, and Gnasher, Dennis must go on a quest, discovering the mysterious Chamber of Mischief in his bid to find the Golden Pea-shooter; but a series of tricky challenges (and Dennis's nemesis, Walter) stand in his way.

Dennis's latest and, quite possibly, greatest adventure is filled with epic fun, from ghostly Vikings and skateboarding Grandmas to an enormous Gnashersaurus-Rex and a series of interactive puzzles for YOU, the reader, to complete. Can YOU help Dennis solve the fiendish mystery and save Beanotown from eternal boringness?

About this title

Review:

Summer is on the way and it's time to make mischief! Nigel Auchterlounie is on his best Beano behaviour for an epic interactive adventure starring those shining comic stars - Dennis, Gnasher, Minnie and Walter - as they try to save Beanotown from a fate worse than death... boredom! Auchterlounie, a writer and comic book artist who pens the scripts for the weekly Dennis and Gnasher strip in the Beano, certainly goes to town in this madcap adventure story which is brimming with ghostly Vikings, skateboarding grandmas, an enormous Gnashersaurus Rex and a series of interactive puzzles for young readers to complete. In fact Dennis and the Chamber of Mischief contains so much fun and entertainment that it has been selected as one of the 'Must-Have Reads' for the Summer Reading challenge as chosen by children and librarians across the country as part of this year's Mischief Makers theme, an annual event produced by the Reading Agency and delivered by libraries to encourage children to read more during the school summer holidays. For the first time in Dennis' life Beanotown has become boring! All his pranks are backfiring and he seems to have lost his awesomeness. Even his faithful hound Gnasher seems fed up with him these days. If only there was some way to bring the fun back to Beanotown...

Fun and laughter all the way for your own mischief-makers! Source: Lancashire Evening Post
