This Book Is Out Of Control

A book behaving badly! From award-winning Richard Byrne, author of This Book Just Ate My Dog (shortlisted for the Children´s Book Award) comes another wonderfully inventive book starring Ben and Bella. It´s a funny and original high-concept picture b ook where the book itself interferes with what happens on the page. Ben has a remote-controlled fire engine but when he presses the buttons on the remote the engine doesn´t turn or spin or sound its siren. While Ben and Bella scratch their heads over this, strange things are happening to Bella´s dog. It´s only when Ben tries the VOICE button that Bella´s dog is able to speak, warning them that ´This Book is Out of Control!´ Readers get the chance to press the buttons and witness the hilarious sl apstick results every time the page is turned. It´s an interactive experience for the reader who ultimately has to help in restoring normality.
