This book was a simple but fun read. As a child, I grew up on the Beano and the Dandy comics, as did my mother in her day. Even though, it is a children’s book, I recommend it to any adult craving Beano nostalgia.

Craig Graham and Mike Stirling’s funny novel for readers aged 8+ (the first in a new spin-off series from the Beano comic with great illustrations by Nigel Parkinson) has a more modern, diverse Beantown with less corporal punishment than when I read the comic but that’s definitely no bad thing and it retains its core of anti-authoritarian silliness and pranks. It would particularly suit kids who love the comic but are reluctant to tackle books.

Massive fan of the Beano since my childhood and always like to drop in and see the new material coming out.

Good little story with plenty of fun and pranks which is a classic Dennis the Menace mix.

Looking forward to reading the rest of the books in the series.

A nice casual read perfect for kids who love all things Beano! As an adult who loved the comic when I was younger this was a fun read that wasn't too taxing, it's mad how the Beano has changed since I used to read it but definitely for the good and survival of a British classic!
