Hello! I am a very tall author stuck on a very small island at the bottom of the world. It's very quiet down here with nothing to look at but the ocean and flightless birds. To pass the time away I write children's stories. Very silly ones. I also try to invent new words. Ninnysquash and Throttlecup are my current favourites. I haven't thought of their meanings yet. One thing at a time!

I hope you like my stories too. I know my mum does. I really enjoy writing them and they always have lots of letters and paragraph breaks.

Cheerio for now...

Or as I like to say Bafflefullup...

We received a complimentary copy of this hilarious book from Peter Millet himself when I told him my son, a previous bookworm had given up books for video games. My son loved it and giggled all the way. This is such good boy humour. I like it much better than the Captain Underpants series.

great early chapter book about a boy whose super powers need a bit of refining and a villain from outer space with a fiendish plot to destroy all pants-holding-up elastic on earth

As a primary school teacher, I am always on the lookout for books that will truly engage my class , and The Petrifying Plot of the Plummeting Pants by Peter Millett has been an absolute triumph! From the very first page, my class was completely hooked—giggling, gasping, and eagerly anticipating what would happen next.

Peter Millett’s storytelling is packed with humour, adventure, and just the right amount of mischief to keep young readers entertained. The fast-paced plot and wonderfully wacky characters had my pupils hanging on every word, and they couldn’t stop talking about it long after we had finished reading for the day. The action-packed storyline, combined with a fantastic dose of silliness, makes this book a classroom favourite.
