Can it really be true that there''s an ancient curse on the town of Lamonic Bibber? And you guessed it, that old roo-de-lally Mr Gum and his trusty sidekick Billy William the Third have something to do with it.

Herr Grim og den fæle Billy William roter som vanlig tingene til for alle. Denne gangen har de skumle planer i Trollfjellet. Kan den kloke gamle mannen Fredag Skvistiansen og den lille jenta Polly klare de tre umulige utfordringene og redde byen fra en skjebne verre enn verst? I denne episke fortellingen om mot, tapperhet og ren idioti er det bare én ting som er helt sikkert: Sannheten er en sitronmarengs! Fortelling for mellomtrinnet.

M. Schnock, au cas où vous ne le sauriez pas, a plus d''un Mauvais Tour dans son sac. Alors, quand Alan Taylor, le Bonhomme de Pain d''Epices millionnaire, décide de distribuer ses billets de banque à toute la ville pour se faire des amis, devinez ce qui arrive ? Eh bien, l''infâme M. Schnock passe à l''attaque ! Mais Polly et Vendredi Ousamedi ne vont pas le laisser faire. Ah, ça non !

Attention : si vous n''aimez pas rire, ce livre n''est pas pour vous ! Vous y trouverez la " véritable " histoire de M. Schnock, le plus abominable bonhomme qui ait jamais existé, et découvrirez pourquoi il veut absolument se débarrasser de Jake, un " bongrochien " comme on n''en fait plus. Vous rencontrerez aussi Vendredi Ousamedi et Polly, ainsi que des écureuils, un boucher dégoûtant, une petite fille qui s''appelle Victor et des papillons... Et pour le reste vous n''avez qu''à le lire !

A mini bumper book of Mr. Gum mayhem, packed with extra bonus stuff and stickers. Step once more into Lamonic Bibber my friends - if you dare . . . In the dead of night, when all the stars are sleeping and the moon''s skipped off for a coffee, something dark and sinister stalks the streets of Lamonic Bibber. As a fog rolls in from the sea, carrying with it the unmistakeable whiff of pancakes and utter dread, an unearthly howl echoes through the cold midnight air. But who - or what - is at work here? Shabba me suspense-filled whiskers, this one will require some serious detective work

Brave-hearted young Polly attempts to stop mean old Mr. Gum from poisoning Jake, a huge dog adopted by the town of Lamonic Bibber that keeps destroying Mr. Gum''s garden, and thus provoking the angry fairy who lives there. Includes a glossary of such English terms as gob and trouserface.
