The Ultimate Wave - Storymaze #1 (Terry Denton)

The Ultimate Wave - Storymaze #1
Terry Denton

Blurb: OK! So you're not sure whether you want to read this book or not?
I'm not going to tell you what you're missing out on if you don't read it.
(You won't believe me anyway.)
(Besides, I haven't read it.)
I'm not going to tell you how funny this book is.
Or that it was not tested on animals, or that 16 dolphins died when the forests were cut down to make the paper for this book. (They fell out of the trees.)
I'm not going to tell you that this book is about surfing and that it contains a story with heroes of either sex who travel to parallel universes.
It has very little violence and absolutely no blood.

The Very Bad Book (Andy Griffiths, illustrated by Terry Denton)

The Very Bad Book
Andy Griffiths, illustrated by Terry Denton

Blurb: In a very bad wood,
There was a very bad house.

And in that very bad house,
There was a very bad room.

And in that very bad room,
There was a very bad cupboard.

And in that very bad cupboard,
There was a very bad shelf.

And on that very bad shelf,
There was a very bad box.

And in that very bad box,
There was a VERY BAD BOOK...

AND THIS IS IT!!!

Sprung! (Andrew Daddo, illustrated by Terry Denton)

Sprung!
Andrew Daddo, illustrated by Terry Denton

Blurb: Want to know:
-how to fake a Funniest Home Video?
-how NOT to road test your stack hat?
-what to do if you miss the bus for the school camp and the bats come to get you?
-AND how to keep your chocolate bar from melting all over the car?

Andrew Daddo's wicked collection of short stories will convince you that no matter how much trouble you've been in, you've never known what it's really like to be sprung!

AND REMEMBER: the only thing worse than getting sprung by your mates for being a suck is getting sprung for being a CHICKEN!

Nation (Terry Pratchett)

Nation
Terry Pratchett

Blurb: On the day the world ends...

...Mau is on his way home from the Boys' Island. Soon he will be a man.

And then the wave comes - a huge wave, dragging black night behind it and bringing a schooner which sails over and through the island rainforest.

The village has gone.

The Nation as it was has gone.

Now there's just Mau, who wears barely anything, a trouserman girl who wears far too much, and an awful lot of big misunderstandings...

Wise, witty and filled with Terry Pratchett's inimitable comic satire, this is a terrific adventure that - quite literally - turns the world upside down.
