Max is an ordinary boy, except that he can turn into a monster when he burps... Max and Peregrine are volunteering at an old people’s home when strange things start to happen. One resident is walking on the ceiling, another is riding their wheelchair through walls, and Reggie says his marmalade is haunted (no one listens). Can Max and his friends work out what’s happening and protect his family and the local community? Things aren’t looking good: the Marmalade Ghost is turning into a sticky Godzilla, Max falls out with his (joint) best friend, and then just when it can’t get any worse, someone kidnaps his cat, Frankenstein... Time to ‘Protect and Do Good Stuff!'

Quotes

  • Praise for Monster Max and the Bobble Hat of Forgetting: ‘This is a monsterific romp of a read that had me howling with laughter. Max is a loveable hero and Frankenstein the cat deserves his own series quite frankly! Monster Max and the Bobble Hat of Forgetting is an unforgettable, hugely funny read.’ Swapna Haddow, author of Dave Pigeon ‘I had a fab time reading this! It’s fabulously silly fun – gloriously anarchic and monstrously funny! I loved the reluctant developing friendship between the boys as well. Very nicely done! Kids will love it … although it was right up my street too!’ Simon James Green, author of Noah Can’t Even and Llama Glamarama
  • ‘Bonkers from start to finish. And I mean that in a GOOD way.’ Philip Ardagh, author of The Grunts series ‘I really enjoyed Monster Max & the Bobble Hat of Forgetting, a funnily monstrous & monstrously funny adventure.’ Gareth P Jones, author of Dragon Detectives series ‘Monster Max and the Bobble Hat of Forgetting has mystery, adventure, and is very, very funny. Beautiful illustrations capture the warmth of a story that many will curl up and devour in an afternoon.’ BookTrust
  • ‘This book is HILARIOUS! … full of action, drama and a hefty amount of monster-sized heart … I didn’t stop laughing from start to finish in this brilliant, madcap adventure. Attention grabbing, heart-warming and completely bonkers!’ Mary Esther Judy, Fallen Star Stories
