Mr Gum #1: You're a Bad Man, Mr Gum! Award-winning author by Andy Stanton (author) and David Tazzyman (illustrator) (UK edition)

Shabba me whiskers! MR GUM is 20 years old (and some). And he’s NOT happy about it.

But everyone else is – and this very special anniversary edition of the bestselling children’s classic is bursting out the nostrils with fun and original extras from the Mr Gum world. Including an introduction from fellow bestselling author, Phil Earle!

’It’s time for action,’ said Mr Gum to nobody in particular. ‘Nasty action.’

Good evening. Mr Gum is a complete horror who hates children, animals, fun and corn on the cob. This book’s all about him. And an angry fairy who lives in his bathtub. And Jake the dog, and a little girl called Polly. And there’s heroes and sweets and adventures and EVERYTHING.

You’re a Bad Man, Mr Gum! is the first book in the internationally best-selling series by Andy Stanton, which has won everything from the Blue Peter Book Award (twice) to the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and the Red House Children’s Book Award.
