Product Description

Product Description
‘That,’ said Mr Borthwick, ‘was the best hamburger I’ve ever tasted!’ Joe has just created the yummiest, juciest, most delicious hamburger ever – and his friend Mr Borthwick wants to sell it in his new hamburger shop. But there’s a problem – Joe has completely forgotten the recipe and the shop is opening very soon. A pinch of this, a touch of that and a spoonful of something else…the race is on for Joe to remember!

Joe loved hamburgers but the only place in town was Mr Borthick's place but the owner was getting old and the place did not have any special equipment or fancy stools; it still needed to be painted and refurbished. There was a new place in town and it was another `Hamburger House'. The `Hamburger House' company could make the best burgers in town and Joe knew Mr Borthick's café would go out of business. One day, Mr Borthick let Joe make his own burger so he made one for him and for the old man - they were the best burgers he had ever tasted. But the trouble was Joe forgot the recipe...
This book is a brilliant book. It is short and snappy and it kept me quite happy. The only bad bit was when I finished because I wanted to know what happened after the story. I would rate this book 10/ 10 and would recommend it to children aged 7 - 11 years (KS 2 children).
Alexander McCall Smith was the author of this book and of bestselling `The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency'. I look forward to reading some of his other works.
