Product Description
Review
It takes a certain amount of panache to carry off great community-saving exploits while wearing one's sister's frilly underpants... Lovely, frothy stuff. Kids will belly-laugh.
(The Guardian )For up-to-date fiction, Giles Andreae's Billy Bonkers is a real laugh.
(The Independent ) --This text refers to the Paperback edition.Product Description
Mad stuff just happens with Billy Bonkers! Billy is a bouncy, bubbly, bonkers boy. And wherever he goes, off-the-wall adventures always seem to follow. From bouncing so hard on his trampoline that he bounces up, up and away...into space, and eating so much porridge his stomach puffs up and he floats into the garden tree (and gets stuck...until he burps anyway), to a flight on a deflating lilo to biff a big, vicious shark right on the nose! Along with his wacky dad, brainy sister and down-to-earth mum, Billy embarks on a life that is never boring, it's bonkers! This zany text is perfectly accompanied by Nick Sharratt's energetic illustrations.

My son was recently given this for his fourth birthday and thinks its wonderful and hilariously funny. The fact that Mr and Mrs Bonkers call each other 'Piglet' and 'Sausage' has him in stitches, and the plots of the three stories are brilliant - with lots of twists and turns and always with warm hearted good humour. I can thoroughly recommend it. I am only sad that so far there don't seem to be any more in the series - surely not for long...?

My seven year old son loved this book; he tried to describe it at school in his book review lesson and apparently became so speechless with laughter that the whole class now wants to read it! 'Grandma' comments that it was rather rude in parts, but that this is no doubt a good thing! If anyone wants a book that will encourage reluctant readers to have a try, then this could be the one. It's definitely up there with Horrid Henry on the favourites' shelf in our family and I am hoping there may be more in the pipeline.
Format:Paperback
My son had been reading horrid henry, I noticed that he was copying some of henry's nasty put downs. Bought Billy Bonkers, my son loves the book and he has gone back to being polite. Only down side is that he will stay up late reading it over and over, but his reading has improved!
