Wilf the Mighty Worrier Rescues the Dinosaurs cover

Fantastically funny Wilf was shortlisted for the Laugh Out Loud Book Awards!

Meet Wilf. He worries about everything. He is a Mighty Worrier. And now the most evil man in the world is determined to takeover from the very beginning of time...

Things Wilf was worried about before:

1. Sleepovers.
2. Skeletons.
3. Being squashed flat.

Things Wilf is worried about now:

4. The most evil man in the world.
5. Anyone called Alan.
6. Alan building a time machine and becoming ruler of the dinosaurs.

Alan is Wilf's self-styled evil lunatic next-door-neighbour. He has a grumpy robot sidekick and a silent right-hand-dog, Kevin Phillips. He is ridiculous. But when Alan decides to build a time machine and travel back to prehistoric Earth, Wilf knows he will have to overcome his fears and anxieties to save his new dinosaur friends...

Join Wilf for a fantastically funny adventure, illustrated throughout by Jamie Littler!
