"Eccentric illustrative and graphical style to match the totally eccentric stories but a winning character to hook readers into this hilarious series"
Mr Gum may well be a ‘bad man’ but rest assured the author Mr Stanton is a ‘funny man’. There’s a wonderful sense of humour throughout. Fans of Roald Dahl will love it. This special edition comes with lots of stickers, a brand new bonus story and an exclusive introduction from the author.
This is the 10th anniversary and modern classic edition of the bestselling and award-winning, You're a Bad Man, Mr Gum 'It's time for action,' said Mr Gum to nobody in particular. 'Nasty action.' Good evening. Mr Gum is a complete horror who hates children, animals, fun and corn on the cob.

Five stars. You’re a Bad Man, Mr Gum is a really funny book. My favourite part was when Jake the big dog was saved by some magical dolphin chocolate.
My favourite character was Polly because she really cares about Jake the big dog.
I’ve read other books in this series and this is the best one!

Amazing, funny, great, awesome and I loved reading it!

Another funny part was Friday saying The Truth Is A Lemon Meringue. The book is about a man called Mr Gum and a dog called Jake and Mr Gum wants to poison him. Polly is a friend of Jake’s and Billy William the third is a nasty man and so is Mr Gum.... Read Full Review
