Synopsis
Unfeasibly funny sequel to the popular Impossible Parents - part of the Sprinters series relaunch Poor Ben and Mary Norm. Their parents have decided to become ecologists and are getting it impossibly wrong. First they ditch their clothes, then the TV and now they're eating yak cheese! Worst of all, the kids at school have found out, and Ben and Mary are a laughing stock...again! If only their parents could go back to being normally impossible, rather than ecologically impossible. But then Mary has an idea that might just work...

Review
Ben and Mary Norm are, well, normal. Unfortunately, their parents aren't. In fact, Mr and Mrs Norm are, quite simply, impossible. So when they get the eco-bug and decide to save the planet, things get a little out of hand...
Brian Patten turns the typical family on its head with his delightful notion of exceedingly well-behaved children coping with extraordinarily badly behaved parents (think Saffy from Absolutely Fabulous coping with her mother Edina's wicked ways, but for much younger children!).
The result is a pacy, funny little book, ideal for young readers who like to get to grips with a book that is not only enjoyable, but also brings environmental issues very much to the fore. (Ages 5 to 8) --Susan Harrison
