Description

A bumper collection of stories, puzzles, cartoons and loads of other stuff from the stars of CBBC's Little Howard's Big Question. Big Howard and Little Howard, the stars of BBC One's Little Howard's Big Question, apply their typically anarchic comedy to a bumper book of fun. 128 pages of hilarious chaos featuring: * Little Howard's Guide to Becoming a Vampire - includes handy tips like drinking Ribena instead of blood and leaving airholes in your coffin in case of guffing. * Little Howard's Little Questions - in which Little Howard answers lots of questions that didn't make it on to the TV show. * Puzzle pages - including a crossword of cross words, the most ridiculous spot-the-difference ever, an impossible maze and a wordsearch full of rude words. * Decide You Own Adventure - an unforgettable story in which you are a Bog Elf on a quest to save a Princess Lady Bear with the help of a Messenger Whelk. * Songs - lyrics from all the (rather silly) songs from the TV series. * And lots, lots more (as they say). Pretty much guaranteed to be the silliest book on the shelves this Christmas.
