Dinkin Dings and the Frightening Things

by

dinkingDinkin is afraid of everything. EVERYTHING! Not just normal scary things but everything (including doors, chores, dinosaurs – especially ones that live indoors – to name just a few). When his new neighbours move in it’s obvious to Dinkin that they are flesh-eating alien space zombies in disguise so he has to come up with a plan to stop them taking over the world… with the help from the monsters that live under the bed!

Guy Bass is a master of the funny and Dinkin Dings and the Frightening Things (illustrated by Pete Williamson) deservedly won the Blue Peter award. For fans of proper silliness.

This is the first in a series, so if you like this there are plenty more stories by Guy Bass to choose from. Or you could check out hilarious Scream Street Books by Tommy Donbavand!
