Disaster!
The Queen of Dunny, the land where jokes come from, has lost her
sense of humour and banned fun of any kind. Her subjects have
one final shot at making her laugh otherwise NO NEW JOKES will be
created EVER AGAIN!
Enter the hero the world needs.
Timothy Trench: straight-talking, uber-decisive child genius...
oh, wait. In an unfortunate case of mistaken identity, the wrong
Timothy - a boy who finds it impossible to make decisions - is
fetched to make the Queen laugh.
Can he work out what will tickle Her Majesty's funny bone and
save the day?
A wildly imaginative, brilliantly silly adventure that's
overflowing with toilet humour!
Wildly funny, delightfully imaginative storytelling with
a message that any kid can be a hero!
Packed with pictures by Stephen Mangan's sister Anita
Mangan.
Escape the Rooms, The Fart That Changed
the World and The Great Reindeer Rescue have been huge
bestsellers: Stephen and Anita are comic dynamite.
