Reading for Pleasure: Our Weekly Recommendations...

22nd May 2021

For our older children...

Our book recommendation for our older children this week comes from Mrs Pickering and is You’re Bad Mr Gum” from the series by Andy Stanton.

Mrs Pickering writes:

I love these books.

Mr Gum and his friend, Billy William, are the most horrible bad-guys ever!

Their adventures lead them to meet the silliest characters, including Monsieur Bellybutton, Friday O’Leary and a gingerbread man called Alan Taylor (he’s a millionaire).

What more could you want? ‘The truth is a lemon meringue!’
