Think Tom Gates, meets Bill and Ted, plus a dollop of unique comedy genius! Steven Vinacour's hilarious third u-bend adventure sees Ted travel back in time to get acting tips from Shakespeare himself all in the vain hope of becoming Romeo to Chloe's Juliet in the school play.

Reviews

This popular series is full of toilet humour (to be fair, the author does apologise for that) and the kind of jokes children love, but its packed with historical facts too, including the quirky, memorable ones that really make history come alive.
Wowsa! My 11 year old son is dyslexic and a very reluctant reader, I have tried many authors and topics to ignite his enthusiasm for reading. Funnily enough, as soon as he started reading all about Teds toilet, I heard fits of giggles and saw a smile on his face as he plies through the book! The language is kid friendly and just draws you in, to the point you feel your are in the book with Ted! Loving seeing my son read for pleasure, which I felt would not happen ever! -- Amazon reviewer * 5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read!!!!! *
Having only received my preview copy this morning, I couldn't put it down until I finished it. It's hilarious main character and interaction with the reader is one of a kind and, although this is aimed at young readers, children of all ages will enjoy learning through the eyes of this lovable (and laughable) series. I can't wait for the next book.
