The 9th Book in the Gorgeous George series - a standalone adventureSpr3d the Chocolate - Big bottom burps and a butt-cheek clench. Stingers, and stinkers and stench. Someone's dropping whoppers, and not letting on. They're silent and violent - a really bad pong. Come on. Own up! Have you ever dropped a whopper in class, and pretended it wasn't you? Yeah, we've all done it. Now, Gorgeous George and Crayon Kenny are letting them slip without warning, and Allison has been put off her dinner.There's a new chocolate spread being launched in Little Pumpington, and the whole town is going wild for it. Grandpa Jock has found the scratchiest toilet paper ever invented, and he wants to show the world what you can do with it ( and it's not for wiping bottoms!)Allison's ear has been dripping with blood. George has been eating a face full of mud. And Crayon Kenny's bottom comes down with a thud!There are a couple of really nasty characters who are about to get away with an entire lifetime's worth of bad behaviour. By popular demand, some chapters start with a Yuck Warning, to protect the delicate (mainly mums and dads and teachers). This story is icky, and sicky, and a little bit sticky. And here's the first warning - 'Do not stick boiled eggs up a donkey's bottom!' (this will make sense if you read the book).

Britain was rapidly emerging as the most powerful European nation, a position France long believed to be her own. Yet with France still commanding the largest continental army, Britain saw its best opportunities for expansion lay in the East.

Describes the events leading up to the French invasion of Egypt, and the disastrous Battle of the Nile.

I promised her that my next book would carry a WARNING, so here goes…WARNING: This book contains words like BUM, POO, BARF and WEE.Do NOT read this book if you are easily offended.

Pirates, parrots, pyramids and pants full of poo! Beans, boats and big bottom burps. Have you ever wanted a book so exciting it keeps you up past your bedtime? A story so mad that you're scared to put it down in case the adventure goes on inside the pages, on its own, even after you've stopped reading? Well, you've found it. Grandpa Jock has made one of his world-famous killer curries using the magic beans that his grandson George swapped for a cow costume with a small leprechaun. Mad enough for you yet? But now their bottoms are about to blow and these time travelling trouser trumpets just might transport Gorgeous George and Grandpa Jock anywhere. Or any when! This book is a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff - Who said that? - as the story loops and swoops and poops, and pops out to the shops, then meets itself coming back again. Crayon Kenny and Allison are tracking down that mad leprechaun, there's a talking parrot who never shuts up, and of course, there are two cute, fluffy, evil little kittens. And bottom burps. Lots and lots of big bottom burps. So much wind that you'll be glad that this is NOT a scratch and sniff book!

The very word 'statisticsa is enough to induce panic or cynicism in most peoplea s hearts. The necessity of studying statistics is often regarded by students as a test of endurance rather than an educational opportunity. Working With Statistics is aimed to show such an audience that studying statistics can be both involving and even pleasurable.
