The Gizmo
Illustrated by Keith McEwan
A lurid and slightly risqué story about a boy who is bullied into stealing a mysterious electronic gizmo from a market stall. Sick with guilt, he tries to dispose of it, but do what he will, the device keeps coming back to him. Then he discovers another of its powers: it mischievously swaps the clothes of its owner with those of anybody he happens to be looking at. Loudly illustrated with shouting colours, this short and helter-skeltery book might well appeal to older readers who are more at home with comics.
