Synopsis
Ben and Mary Norm are, well, normal. Unfortunately, their parents aren't. In fact, Mr and Mrs Norm are, quite simply, impossible. So when they get the eco-bug and decide to save the planet, things get a little out of hand...
Brian Patten turns the typical family on its head with his delightful notion of exceedingly well-behaved children coping with extraordinarily badly behaved parents (think Saffy from Absolutely Fabulous coping with her mother Edina's wicked ways, but for much younger children!).
The result is a pacy, funny little book, ideal for young readers who like to get to grips with a book that is not only enjoyable, but also brings environmental issues very much to the fore. (Ages 5 to 8) --Susan Harrison
