A brilliant new novel full of heart and humour from master storyteller Morris Gleitzman.

CHILDISH

Me and Dot reckon it's just a word for being a child.

And having a crack at solving a big problem using only a really good friendship and the world's best dumplings and a thousand kilos of plasticine.

Like we're doing now.

‘Childish . . . [is] another absolutely cracking book destined to become not only a classic but award-worthy.’
