BOB IS BACK AND IT'S TIME TO SAVE THE WORLD . . . AGAIN!

The unmissable follow-up to BOB VS THE SELFIE ZOMBIES, perfect for fans of DAVID SOLOMONS, DAVID BADDIEL and GREG JAMES & CHRIS SMITH.

AI is threatening to take over the world, and our last hope is a 12-year-old boy called Bob.

Bob, an accidental time-traveller, should be doing his homework but instead he's bouncing in and out of the year 2049 - and life in the future seriously stinks!

When Bob's science-class experiment goes wrong, he causes a global aroma-virus pandemic - also known as the farting flu. The grumpy school inspector has his eye on Bob and detention looms. But Bob's got bigger problems.

He must face robot gorillas, an evil computer and giant patrol insects to save the world from a very farty future . . . ?

Hold your noses for an adventure to the year 2049 and back!

An explosively plotted ripping yarn, this fart-out-loud novel is a real blast. This short chapter book is bound to be a hit with KS2 classes. * The School Reading List *
Extremely entertaining...a series not to be missed! * Check Em Out Books *
Packed with adventure, humour and excitement, and illustrated throughout by the ultra-creative Robin Boyden, there's fun all the way to the future and back. * Lancashire Evening Post *
For children who love slapstick humour and gas-induced giggles, this is the book for them. The book is cleverly peppered with clues that pull together for the final hurrah. Andy Jones manages to tackle a serious topic about the effect of Artificial Intelligence on our futures with a light-hearted delivery. * ReadingZone *
Full of humour that children of this age just love, this is as good as the first book in the series. It's a book that really engages its readers but it also great for capturing the interest of reluctant readers, especially boys. [...] this will be a very popular read! * The School Librarian *
