Full Description
"It's been described as a cross between Alice
in Wonderland and The Crystal Maze and
it manages to feel both classic and modern at the same time." Good
Housekeeping
"A brilliant, clever, kind of genius book" Graham
Norton, Virgin Radio
A high-energy, laugh-out-loud, fully illustrated adventure
story by much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and talented artist
Anita Mangan.
The last thing Jack expected when he bungee-jumped at
the fairground was to go plummeting
right through the ground into the weird, wonderful
Rooms...
There he must face a series of puzzles and traps alongside
a mysterious girl called Cally, in order
for them to find their way home.
Throw in a murderous polar bear, hundreds of tiny yet ferocious
lions, some mind-blowing riddles, and get ready for a hilarious,
helter-skelter adventure like no other!
Escape the Rooms follows two children dealing with loss
on an amazing adventure.
Wildly funny and endlessly surprising, Escape the Rooms
is also a story about friendship, overcoming fears and being
kind to yourself.
Packed with fantastic pictures created by Stephen Mangan's sister,
Anita
Check out Stephen and Anita's other books, The Fart
that Changed the World, The Unlikely Rise of Harry Sponge and The
Great Reindeer Rescue.
More praise for Escape the Rooms
"[Escape the Rooms] is richly imagined and deeply heartfelt,
and Anita Mangan's cartoonish and poignant illustrations capture
the tone perfectly ... It reminded me a little of The Wizard
of Oz, with the children on a quest through different lands to
get home." Hadley Freeman, Guardian
"A beautiful and exciting adventure that ignites the imagination"
Edith Bowman
