About this title

About the Author:

Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter have a shared obsession with poop. After writing songs together for nine years in the band McFly, they wrote this book in the same way that they write their song lyrics. Garry Parsons is the illustrator of Billy's Bucket, the Daisy series, Nuddy Ned, and many other children's books.

Review:

"Expect this naughty rhyming story to be a seasonal favourite" * The Bookseller * "The book, which is very reminiscent of Dr Seuss . . . is a lovely life lesson and deliciously naughty toilet-humour that will have young readers squealing in delight" * Madhouse Family reviews * "Great for little people" * Burnley Express * "They have masterminded a work of genius." -- Philip Stone * The Bookseller * "A very, very silly book written by two members of pop band McFly, Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter. The story revolves around Danny - a very greedy boy who asks Father Christmas for too many presents. But Father Christmas decides enough is enough and instead gives Danny a huge Dinosaur which results in a very messy and smelly consequence. If your child liked Aliens in Underpants or The Story of the Little Mole, they will love this funny yet cautionary tale." * Madeformums.com *
