Product Description
Shabba me whiskers! This is barking bonkers! Well, that old roo-de-lally Mr Gum and the hideous Billy William the Third are once more mucking things up for everyone. They're a-schemin' and a-hatchin' an' making their bad plans up on Goblin Mountain. Can the brave travellers (the wise old man Friday O'Leary and the small girl Polly) make it past the Three Impossible Challenges of Goblin Mountain and save the town from a fate worse than something very bad indeed? In an epic tale of courage, valour and plain idiocy only one thing is sure: the truth is a lemon meringue! Mr Gum is back in a third hilarious story, read by Andy Stanton and with music and sound effects.

Well the long wait is over. Now we only have to wait until February for the next Gummy instalment. My kids were overjoyed to get their hands on this. To save the inevitable fighting over who would get to read it first I hid Mr Gum and the Goblins until we could read it as a family. Well all three of mine (boys aged 9 and 7 and a girl aged 6) just loved this to bits - as much as the earlier two books. I'd suggest a visit to the Mr Gum website to download the Lamonic Bibber songbook so that the true delights of the tunnel song and the radish ode can be yours. Oh and the bonus story about Granny's cardigan is an especial treat, even more so for those of us in our 40s who remember punk. No Saul Bellow jokes in this one though!

Blinkin', blimmin, blimey! What a fanbtastic read, this 'un is better than the previous two, it's really funty. I read it to a crowd of children and stoned people in a Teepee in nightly installments and they kept coming back for more. I adored this book.

Shabba me whiskers I am not a great book lover im a 9 year old boy who gets easily bored but Andy Stanton knows how to electrify my brain with excitement he must be the best children's book writer EVER his words are hillariously funty, gives you great ideas for tricks and fun. And I love the way he writes as thoe he's talking so it's easy to follow. And This book is just as good as the other two stories, I can't wait unitl he brings out his next book. This is a must for all children with a sense of humour. The End . P.s My mum even likes reading his stories we have funty times together reading him. Review by Hayden Tofield Wallington

Great!
This book was a great addition to the other Mr Gum titles I have been reading as bedtime stories for my six year old. He loves the characters and wants the rest.

My 10 year old just loves these books
Hard to beat Mr Gum if you're ten. In fact my son has loved these since he was much younger. Great children's humour. Clever, witty and most excellent.

Gum not Glum
My kids certainly giggled while listening to Mr Gum and the odd assortment of characters. There is no bone in this story's body which has a serious tone to it, the whole thing is... Read more

Lively and fun
A great audio book for children with a wicked sense of humour that might also appeal to adults. Narrated by the author, and good value at a running time of 1 hr and 15 minutes.

By gum it's fun
My son is an avid Mr Gum fan, and reading the books together usually has us both laughing out loud - there are plenty of opportunities to play around with voices, noises and so on. Read more

Gum Fun
The Mr Gum stories are imaginatively written and wickedly funny to boot. My children love the craziness of the characters and the unexpected story lines. Read more
