From the talented brother-sister duo of Stephen and Anita Mangan
comes this exciting fully illustrated adventure.
A high-energy, laugh-out-loud, fully illustrated adventure
story by much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and talented artist
Anita Mangan.
"Laugh-out-loud stuff" Ray D’Arcy
It's the most important day of the year for King Fabian as he
is hosting all the neighbouring rulers. Everything
simply must go perfectly.
King Fabian wakes up, stretches, and...
farts.
His wife's fury is so huge that he panics and blames the butler,
who is carted off to the dungeons. Leaving behind a big problem:
Fabian isn't really the brains behind the crown: it is the butler...
how will dithery Fabian manage to pull off this high-pressure
event alone? His small and smelly fart looks like it will kick
off a crisis...
Frank - a kitchen boy with a big imagination - is drafted in as
an emergency butler. As the banquet descends into a food fight
and processions catapult out of control, Frank finds himself in an
all-out farty farce. Can he save the day?
Wildly funny and endlessly surprising, this
is delightfully imaginative, surreal storytelling with a message
that small events can trigger big change, and children can be heroes!
Packed with pictures by Stephen Mangan's sister
Anita Mangan.
Escape the Rooms is one of the most loved and bestselling
children's debuts of 2021.
Stephen and Anita Mangan are comic dynamite.

Stephen on writing for children (interview on ITV's
Lorraine):
“Every page has to grip them, make
them laugh, be interesting because they can drop it. There are
screens everywhere that they can pick up. That’s part of
the reason why I started writing books because I had such fun as
a kid reading books. I always had my head in a book. I wanted to
write books that were unputdownable for children, that were full
of adventure and crazy big characters and made them laugh.”
