Things Wilf was worried about before: 1. Fish sucking his toes when he goes for a paddle. 2. Garden gnomes coming to life. 3. Losing his 'How to Stop Worrying' leaflet.
Things Wilf is worried about now: 1. Alan coming on holiday to Africa with him. 2. Alan raising an army of terrifying animals in his quest for world domination. 3. Being the only person who can stop Alan. As usual.
Join Wilf on an animal-tastic jungle adventure, with laughs on every page and exuberant illustrations by the talented Jamie Littler.

Praise for the Wilf the Mighty Worrier series:
"A lively, funny story that should delight and reassure many children who are worriers themselves"―Jacqueline Wilson
"Wilf The Mighty Worrier could not be more charming or hilarious and I'm not just saying that because I'm a worrier myself who comes from a long line of worriers and wow, I really wish this sentence was shorter. I am saying that because it's true. Georgia Pritchett is a marvelous writer who has written a marvelous book. Period."―Julia Louis-Dreyfus
"Genuinely touching and wonderfully funny. A total delight of a, what I call, book."―Miranda Hart
"... great to read aloud as there are lots of opportunities for silly voices....The author really draws the reader in and they will soon become totally immersed in Wilf's crazy adventures"―Parents in Touch
"An enjoyable, laughable, and highly recommended title for any readers ready for a ragtag-style adventure-or anyone who has ducks wielding peanut butter sandwiches on their list of worries."―School Library Journal
"Thumb firmly on the [laughs] button, Pritchett, a TV comedy writer, pitches her 'stagger blasted' young worrier into one 'kerfuffle' after another. Along with typographical high jinks, the tale features both plenty of comically melodramatic cartoon illustrations and silly drawings that Wilf makes to defuse his many anxieties."―Kirkus Reviews
"Full of invented words and tangential asides, Pritchett's over-the-top narration pulls readers to and fro as Wilf tries to put aside his many (many) fears to stop Alan and his Big Gun Thingy from destroying the planet. Fans of cracked adventures from the likes of Andy Griffiths and Dav Pilkey will be right at home."―Publishers Weekly
