Perfect for kids who love to laugh, a classic tale about the value
of fooling around, written and illustrated by two masters of
children's literature. Tom loves to fool around and is very good at
it. So he invents a jam-powered frog and takes his Aunt Bundlejoy
Cosysweet out on the frog out for a spin. When the no-nonsense
Captain Najork sees them hopping past his window, he and his hired
sportsmen jump into their pedal-powered snake and set off in hot
pursuit. Events, adventure and sheer craziness conspire to bring
Tom and the Captain together at the local girls' boarding school,
where Aunt Fidget Wonkham-Strong Najork is in the middle of a
best-of-three arm-wrestling contest against the Headmistress...
Sublimely silly, this is a very funny collaboration for children by
Russell Hoban and Quentin Blake, a rip-roaring adventure guaranteed
to keep the pages turning and the laughs bouncing off the ceiling!
This is a brilliant companion volume to How Tom Beat Captain Najork
and His Hired Sportsmen, also published by Godine.
