Hamish and the WorldStoppers

Hamish and the WorldStoppers is the hilarious childrens debut from presenter and bestselling adult author, Danny Wallace! Perfect for fans of David Walliams, Tom Gates and James Patterson. What would YOU do... if the whole world just stopped? Yes the WHOLE WORLD. Birds in the air. Planes in the sky. And every single person on the planet - except you! Because thats what keeps happening to ten-year-old Hamish Ellerby. And its being caused by The WorldStoppers and their terrifying friends The Terribles! They have a PLAN! They want to take our world for their own . . . Oh, and they hate children. Especially if youre a child who knows about them. Hang on - You know now, dont you? Oh dear. Can Hamish save us from the WorldStoppers? Only time will tell! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Frank Cottrell Boyce Poor Danny Wallace! Once kids get their hands on this quirky and hilarious book, theyre gonna be bugging him to write Hamish stories til hes 97 Tim Minchin Original, quirky and super silly, Wallace has written a great book that kids - particularly boys - will really enjoy The Sun Like David Walliams, Wallace is a comedian turned childrens author. Of the two, Wallaces writing is the funnier. The Sunday Times, Childrens Book of the Week Wallaces vividly imagined adventure cracks along at a brisk pace. Bristling with one-liners, it has an easy, unforced humour and a strong sense of excitement Time freezing is a neat device and Wallace uses it skilfully to make almost anything seem possible.
