You're a Bad Man, Mr Gum!
Good evening.
Mr Gum is a complete horror who hates children, animals, fun and corn on the cob.
This book's all about him.
And an angry fairy who lives in his bathtub. And Jake the dog, and a little girl called Polly and an evil, stinky butcher all covered in guts.
And there's heroes and sweets and adventures and everything!

Mr Gum and the Biscuit Billionaire
Good evening.
Ok, this book's a bit hard to describe.
There's this gingerbread man with electric muscles, see?
And he's as rich as a mushroom, right?
And Mr Gum and Billy William are plotting to get the cash, yeah?
And it's up to Polly to save the day.
And there's a funfair and hot dogs, and Friday O'Leary shouts out some crazy stuff, and...
hey, that wasn't so hard to describe after all.
See ya!

Mr Gum and the Goblins
Good evening, brave reader!
But are you brave enough to join Polly and Friday as they climb Goblin Mountain to battle the forces of evil? For be warned. This book is full of swords and trolls and witches and a thing that looks like a gherkin.
And somehow that old roo-de-lally Mr Gum is all mixed up in it too.
Shabba me whiskers, it's a burpin' epic!

Mr Gum and the Power Crystals
Good evening, children, on this dark and windy night.
Now, come gather round the fireplace, for 'tis time for strange tales to be spun. Like the tale of Polly and that old tumbledown windmill by the riverside.
But just what is the windmill's terrible secret?
Why is Mr Gum lurk-lurk-lurkin' about?
And how much does Old Granny know?
Gather closer, children, for all shall be revealed...
Brrr! Spooky!

Mr Gum and the Dancing Bear
Good evening.
Do you like bears called Padlock?Course you do.
Do you like hot-air balloons? Course you do.
Do you like tall sailing ships with mad sea captains, and nasty oldvillains, and words like 'wab!', 'tungler' and 'kelp'? Course you do!
Well, guess what, you lucky little nibbleheads? This book's got all of those things - and a lot more besides.
It's a rollicker!
It's a frolicker!
It's a fun-time sun-time yollicker!
So what you waiting for?
Get reading!

What's for Dinner, Mr Gum?
Good evening.
Bang! Ka-boom! Ouch. Yes, Lamonic Bibber is at war and it's all because of Mr Gum and his nasty butcher pal, Billy William the Third. As the meat and grease whizz through the air, it's down to Polly and her friends to break up the fight.
Ka-pow! Can they do it in time?
Ka-smash! Will love save the day?
Ka-question! Who on earth is Thora Gruntwinkle?
Read this book and you'll find out, you delightful little peanuts!
Mmm... Tasty!

Mr Gum and the Cherry Tree
Good evening and welcome to the tale of forests! of legendary beasts! of dreadful villains! of caterpillars called Graham! And of a great big Beefer of a cherry tree! But what dark secrets are hidden in that tree, where the leaves grow thick and green? Polly intends to find out, and she intends to find out by finding out. What will she find out? Find out by reading this book and you'll find it!
Neeeeiiiiggggh!

Mr Gum and the Secret Hideout
Good evening.
Talking parrots in the rooftops?
A giant cactus on the high street?
Mosquitoes so nasty that even their own friends don't like them?
Something's gone terribly wrong in Lamonic Bibbler... and Mr Gum is nowhere to be found.
Yes, folks, Polly and Friday are facing their biggest challenge yet. So strap yourselves in, cry 'Hi-Ho-Weirdy!' and get ready for anadventureso crazy your feet will melt with happiness!
And I'm not just saying that, I've actually seen it happens.
Hooray!
