A high-energy, laugh-out-loud, fully illustrated adventure story by
much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and talented artist Anita Mangan.
'Just read the title... that will draw them in. It's a bit naughty,
a bit silly, a bit funny but you start reading and it's an
adventure Holly Willoughby A sure-fire way for kids to entertain
themselves. What's more, it's also excellent for reading aloud
LoveReading4Kids 'Laugh-out-loud stuff' Ray D'Arcy It's the most
important day of the year for King Fabian as he is hosting all the
neighbouring rulers. Everything simply must go perfectly. King
Fabian wakes up, stretches, and... farts. His wife's fury is so
huge that he panics and blames the butler, who is carted off to the
dungeons. Leaving behind a big problem: Fabian isn't really the
brains behind the crown: it is the butler... how will dithery
Fabian manage to pull off this high-pressure event alone? His small
and smelly fart looks like it will kick off a crisis... Frank - a
kitchen boy with a big imagination - is drafted in as an emergency
butler. As the banquet descends into a food fight and processions
catapult out of control, Frank finds himself in an all-out farty
farce. Can he save the day? Wildly funny and endlessly surprising,
this is delightfully imaginative, surreal storytelling with a
message that small events can trigger big change, and children can
be heroes! Packed with pictures by Stephen Mangan's sister Anita
