Megamess
Some children are neat. Some children are not. Bob made messes, and he never EVER tidied up.
A magnificently messy adventure to discover the importance of tidying up!
One day, all the rubbish under Bob's bed combines to make Megamess - a walking, talking pile of trash. Together, they join forces to create the MESSIEST MESS OF ALL TIME! They mess up the town, the country, and then, the entire world! Bob is having the mess of his life until he gets sent out to sea and comes face to face with the impact of hisβand everyone else'sβrubbish. Maybe Megamesses aren't as fun as Bob first thought, and there comes a time where we all need to tidy up...
From Eoin McLaughlin, author of The Hug (a Guardian Best Book of 2019), comes a hilarious, thought-provoking picture book with an environmental twist, illustrated by the award-winning Julia Christians.
