Buy How to Survive Without Grown-Ups by Hayes, Larry, Abey, Katie online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: Utterly hilarious, original and intelligently written by exciting new children’s author Larry Hayes with non-stop action and adventure. It’s also also very touching with superb illustrations by Katie Abey. I couldn’t put it down and I’m an adult! You just can’t help but immediately get sucked in to the plight and perils of nervy Eliza and her genius younger brother Johnnie and watch their relationship and resilience develop and unfold in the midst of a seemingly impossible mission to get their astronaut /inventor parents back from a one-way trip to Mars. Packed with land, sea, jungle and space missions, helpful (and not so helpful!) creatures, robots, robo-animals and an insane megalomaniac billionaire, it’s got the lot. All bundled up in a tightly written, tense, thrilling and laugh-out-loud page-turner where the illustrations add a delicious extra dollop of humour. If you don’t read this, then you’re a complete Bonobobot* * see page 155. I promise you, it’s brilliant. Review: The game arrived on time and as described. I bought it as a present.
