Mr Gum and the Biscuit Billionaire by Andy Stanton

Mr Gum is horrid—in fact, absolutely grimsters. But this book's not just about him, it's also about a gingerbread man named Alan Taylor who has electric muscles! Plus, all our favorite characters are back: the little girl called Polly, the evil butcher called Billy William The Third, and the very wise man, Friday O'Leary. And, who could forget loveable Jake the dog, or the angry fairy who lives in Mr Gum's bathtub and whacks him on the head with a frying-pan? This book will have you crying with laughter!


Our book for our October meeting was "Mr Gum and the biscuit Billionaire".  Some people loved the book and were going to look for more Mr Gum books to read but others weren't so keen on the story and thought it was a bit rude : )    There are lots of  characters and the story moves very fast so it can be a bit confusing but if you are looking for a quick , easy funny read this could be for you.

 Mr Gum has a great website with all kids of stories, games and quizzes, check out the picture of our drawings of Mr Gum. David Tazzyman who illustrates the Mr Gum books has a video on the website of how to draw him and we followed this. We also did a quiz
