Unbearable!

Paul Jennings
(Puffin Books)
978-0140344769, RRP £2.99, Paperback
10-14 Middle/Secondary
Buy "Unbearable! (Puffin Books)" on Amazon

Eight bizarre tales that'll get their kudos from poo, vomit, licking squashed flies and disgusting feet, if from nothing else. They make a quick, highly engaging read which, no doubt, will take off as meteorically as the other collections by this author. There's a cleverly orchestrated anticipation as you wait for the surprise ending that you know will come but you can never quite suss out!
