The next time one of your children comes up with that killer of a line,'I'm fed up!', try giving them this book as a witty and purposeful antidote to boredom. It's hard to resist a story in which someone advises, 'Go and save the world from the horrors of pollution ... it's time someone did.' The pictures, too, are just as interesting as the words. Younger children will welcome Anthony Anthony's adventures for their own sake; older ones can consider the implications of individual responsibility if they would like to. Otherwise they can just enjoy the story.
