Hurrah and Harooh!  There’s a new Mr Gum book in town - and if that doesn’t get you excited, you must be a flippin’ crazer!

In Mr Gum and the Dancing Bear, Andy Stanton continues his skewed look at the odd goings on in Lamonic Bibber.  This time, a bear arrives in town and is befriended by Polly (well, she’s that kind of girl).  You’d think all was well until, of course, Mr Gum and his mucky butcher sidekick, Billy William the Third, turn up to create havoc.

The ensuing adventure takes Polly far away from home - some of it in disguise.  I won’t say any more in case the Spirit of the Rainbow turns up to give me a kicking for giving it all away - but I will say that you should buy this fifth book in the all-too-brilliant- Mr Gum series.  Buy it now.

Unless, of course, you’re on Mr Gum’s side…
