The Day I Fell Down the Toilet

by Stephan Mangan

 

A high-energy, laugh-out-loud, fully illustrated adventure story by much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and talented artist Anita Mangan, creators of Top 10 Fiction Bestsellers The Fart That Changed the World and The Great Reindeer Rescue.  A laugh-out-loud, wildly imaginative twist on THE WIZARD OF OZ as a boy gets flushed down a toilet and discovers a magical world in the queen has completely lost her sense of humour and banned any mirth of any kind. As the boy navigates the world by popping up in various locations via toilets, he encounters a whole host of wacky people and creatures and must find out who has robbed the queen of her funny bone and return it to her, before the inhabitants of the world forget how to laugh and enjoy life, FOREVER.

Wildly funny, delightfully imaginative storytelling with a message that any kid can be a hero! Packed with pictures by Stephen Mangan's sister Anita Mangan.  

Escape the Rooms, The Fart That Changed the World and The Great Reindeer Rescue have been huge Stephen and Anita are comic dynamite.

This book was really funny. Especially the ways they tried to make the Queen laugh. The part that made me chuckle most was when he forgot the saw and was unable to cut someone in half. My grandkids loved it.

Read this with my 10 year old. The filler chapters felt kind of draggy at times, but we loved the jokes! Cute and fun, 3.5. rounded down
