Disaster Dad
(illustrated by Jenny Taylor)

Who’s over two metres tall, has hands the size of buckets, and leaves a trail of mayhem and chaos in his wake? Disaster Dad, that’s who! Meet him, along with the rest of the family, in a series of stories told by his ten-year-old son, Finn.

In Disaster Dad: Chicken Chaos, Mum goes away for a week and leaves a master plan for Dad, Finn and Emma to follow but the plan is accidentally destroyed. Dad decides to do things his way, including planning a birthday surprise for Mum when she gets home.

Warning: this book is crammed full of chaos and contains amusing antics, bonkers baking, clucking chickens and disastrous D-I-Y!
