"Roger McGough's witty text offers many weird and wonderful
explanations ... Chris Riddell's artwork makes the whole an
imaginative feast" - Bookseller Runner-up for the English
Association 4-11 Award for the Best Children's Picture Book.
Nominated for the Kate Greenaway Medal. From the minds of the
former Children's Laureate Chris Ridell, and award-winning fellow
of the Royal Society of Literature Roger McGough, comes a
fun-filled book about how things work. Have you ever wondered how a
toaster works? Or a fridge-freezer, or a washing-up machine? In
this fun-filled book of how things work, Dudley, the techno-wizard
dog, provides the answers. Roger McGough's delightfully ingenious
text and Chris Riddell's striking illustrations take children from
the furthest realms of fantasy into the fascinating world of
technology to discover the workings of familiar machines, making it
an exciting book which will delight again and again. At first, it
describes how a child thinks things work... (gnomes in the toaster)
and then Dudley tells you how the various household appliances
really work. Includes all the appliances a curious child would be
interested in: the dishwasher, the fridge-freezer and more. A
funny, imaginative 'how things work' book for ages 4-7.
