I am a book. And I want to beat you! Think you can beat me? First, you’ll have to complete my ridiculous, ludicrous, yet absolutely hilarious challenges.

New Zealand has the longest place name in the word. Can you say: Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaunga horonukupokaiwhenuakitnatahu quicker than me?
Here are some more of my extra-silly challenges:

Can you point to your spine?
- What about my spine?
Can you make the tiniest whisper ever?
Can you make the noise an otter makes?
Can you do an impression of a goldfish by holding your breath?
- They can go for five months without oxygen!

An engaging, entertaining book designed to be played with, packed with clever facts and comic genius. Gemma Correll’s funny comic-style illustrations bring the character of the Book to life and make for a fresh and exciting read.

It’s ideal for reluctant readers, as they become a vital part of the book’s story, using their imagination to outwit the book… however they choose to do so!

Each reading experience with this book is different, leading to fun-filled re-reads each time. Play along on your own or as a family – just do whatever it takes to Beat This Book!

�ber die Autorinnen und Autoren

Howard Calvert is a children's book author and magazine journalist. As a child, Howard was a big Richard Scarry fan, and still considers Lowly Worm a close confidante, even if he is an anthropomorphic worm. He lives in Hampshire, UK, with his wife and two daughters, and enjoys getting covered in mud in the countryside while trail running or mountain biking, eating his own bodyweight in cinnamon buns, riding his Brompton and destroying his kitchen while baking.

Gemma Correll is an illustrator originally from the UK, now based in Oakland, California. A graduate of the Norwich School for Art and Design, Gemma's work has a strong narrative basis. She specializes in hand-drawn comics, characters, illustrations, typography, and pattern. Gemma has exhibited all over the world, and she was the recipient of a Young Guns award from the Art Director's Club of New York in 2010. Gemma is the author and illustrator behind the quirky Doodling for… series.

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
