Mr. Gum and the Power Crystals Stanton, Andy and Tazzyman, David

**Mr. Gum and the Power Crystals - Preloved Paperback**

Get ready for absolute chaos as the wonderfully wicked Mr. Gum discovers mystical power crystals that turn his already bonkers schemes up to eleven! Andy Stanton's brilliantly barmy children's fiction follows our gloriously grubby villain as he plots world domination with sparkly rocks, while the long-suffering townspeople of Lamonic Bibber try to stop his ridiculous rampage.

This laugh-out-loud adventure perfectly blends silly humor with genuine heart, tackling themes of friendship, community spirit, and why stealing magical crystals is generally a terrible idea. David Tazzyman's wonderfully wonky illustrations bring every mad moment to life.

Perfect for confident young readers aged 7-11 who love their stories served with extra silliness. Stanton, a former children's laureate nominee, creates pure comedy gold that keeps kids giggling and parents secretly chuckling too.

This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks is ready for its next adventure!
