Includes cool collector cards to swap with your mates.Trade ReviewMitch knows more totally useless things about useless subjects than anybody on Earth * Chris Tarrant *Boys love facts. And the more disgusting these facts are, the better. As I have mentioned on The Book Zone in the past, some of the most popular books in the school library are The Guiness Book of Records and Ripley's Believe It Or Not. Every break time there are groups of boys gathered around the various volumes of these that we have on the shelves, and sometimes we have to step in and encourage them to enjoy them in a slightly less rowdy manner, especially where Ripley's is concerned. Thus, when these four books arrived from the generous people at Random House I decided that before going through them myself I would put them to the test in the school library. We took the boys' favourites off the shelf for one break time and had these ready in their place, and then sat back to observe their reaction.Their reaction spoke volumes. After the initial disappointment at the absence of their glossy, large format favourites they were soon gathered around in their groups, taking it in turns to flick through whichever book they had in search of the grossest fact they could find. Cue raucous laughter and non-stop giggling for the next twenty minutes - Mitchell Symons's That's So Gross books passed the test with flying colours! * The Book Zone (for boys): bookzone4boys.blogspot.com *Animals, creepy crawlies and the human body are tackled in a Horrible Histories way, and each book is packed with the sort of disgusting trivia that delights children under eight. -- Toby Clements * The Telegraph *

Signal Books Ltd Unbeatables
Book SynopsisShy boy Amadeo reigns supreme at table football in his local cafe. Taking on all comers he is one of "the unbeatables" with his loyal team of tiny foosballers. But there's another "unbeatable" in town. Aggrieved by his only ever defeat at the hands of Amadeo in a foosball match when they were kids, Flash the town bully returns to seek revenge. Not only does he destroy the foosball table, but he challenges Amadeo to a game of actual football. Amadeo has never played real football - and Flash, with his insatiable quest for glory, has subsequently risen to become the world's most famous soccer star. With the future of the village at stake and his foosballers scattered, the situation looks hopeless for Amadeo. Unless he can recruit the help of his eccentric fellow villagers and the girl he loves, Lara, to take on the world's best football team captained by his nemesis Flash. And unless the foossballers can be reunited. "It'll be like Barcelona against a non-league team with an injury crisis," predicts Lara. What nobody predicts, however, is how Amadeo's foosballers will affect the game...The Unbeatables novel is the ultimate fantasy football story.Expanding upon the original movie, the novel includes additional adventures and characters. Written for young adults (and not so young adults), the book is a scintillating, action-packed 90 minutes of end-to-end incident, comedic flair, goalmouth scrambles and dubious off the ball challenges on the ethos of the modern gameTrade Review"If you're looking for a light-hearted, fun read, then The Unbeatables could be just the ticket. You may have seen the animated film of the same name, but it won't spoil your enjoyment of the book if you haven't... An entertaining read."-Late Tackle; "I was delighted to read the book, took it one word at a time, great set of pages." - Mark Steel

It was one of the first poetry books I bought when I started teaching and one which I have used regularly since. Illustrated throughout by Roger, the poems are about both real and imaginary animals from the Allivator to the Zonk... Rich in word play and puns, each poem is imaginative and full of humour. The words trip off the tongue, making them a joy to perform and very easy to learn by heart as well as it being satisfying for children to explore the ideas, word play and patterns and use these in their own writing." * Through The Bookshelf *"This is a new paperback edition or, in Roger McGough’s words, ‘a refurbishment’ of the classic 1988 anthology of poetry, which includes the poet’s own illustrations and an engaging new cover design. Playful, imaginative and thoughtful, I argue that this collection should remain a staple in any classroom or library.. This is a book that must be read aloud with or to children, in the moment, to appreciate its rhythm, rhyme, humour and creativity. This is much more than just a collection of wacky, weird poems: the overall message is the importance of observing, creating and pondering. It is about the ‘what if?’ and the simple joy of play!... This collection may be over 30 years old, yet the poetry remains creative, refreshing and smart in its construction... This book will continue to delight and encourage young ‘bookworms’ in homes, libraries and classrooms." * Just Imagine *
