Produktbeschreibung

Former bestmates Kit and Hamza must deliver a cooked turkey across town, but can they tolerate one another for that long? A hilarious caper from bestseller Simon James Green.

Can a TURKEY bring best friends Hamza and Kit back together?

Kit is furious following a betrayal by his oldest friend, Hamza -over a girl?! He wants nothing to do with him until the boys are offered a lot of money to do a job for one of their neighbours.

The job is to deliver a turkey to an address across London before it gets cold. Weird but pretty simple, right? But that's before it turns into a hilarious, hysterical race against time, the police, the bomb squad and a scary street gang.

Can Kit and Hamza make it in time, and will they ever speak to each other again if they do?

Particularly suitable for readers aged 11+ with a reading age of 7.

Rezensionen

"Are they going to make it despite their hapless Laurel-and-Hardyesque mishaps with an unscheduled stop at their favourite fried chicken shop, a brush with underground trains and a short-cut that takes them into gangland territory? ... you're going to have plenty of fun finding out for yourself." - The Letterpress Project

"Full of Simon's razor-sharp observations, his trademark humour and brilliantly illustrated by Tosin Akinkunmi, this is a wonderful short story about friendship and betrayal." - Mrs Sydney's Famous World's Smallest Library, blog

"Lots of snappy dialogue, witty banter and moments of hilarity in this jolly caper ... with a kind observation of the importance of loyalty, friendship and forgiveness." - A Library Lady, blog

"A hilarious trip with a turkey across London attempts to heal the rift between two best friends. A great story to explore how to overcome disagreements within friendships, and to remember the importance of simply having fun together." - Library Looter, blog
