R O Dent

Flatulent Tales: the Adventures of Gilbert the Farting Mouse R O Dent 2nd edition

When Gilbert discovers the astounding propulsive powers of his farts, a whole new world opens up to him. He flies in orbit round the world, saves a house from being burgled, rescues a man trapped at the top of a building, saves the local market from a plague of rats and finally saves the world-famous Sydney Hobart Yacht Race from disaster when the entire fleet becomes becalmed. His only failure was when he attempted to effect a win for his local football team by lifting the ball over the crossbar, but the referee penalises Gilbert for cheating. Despite that, Gilbert is truly a local hero in his home town of Coffs Harbour, the beautiful resort area by the sea in Australia.
