Cyril Bonhamy Series by Jonathan Gathorne-Hardy
Illustrated by Quentin Blake

Age: 8 to 11 years


Accident prone and totally incompetent, Cyril Bonhamy seems unable to
perform the simplest tasks. But somehow he always ends up an unlikely
hero after the most terrifying adventures. Jonathan Gathorne-Hardy
combines humour and fast action in this hilarious series.

CYRIL BONHAMY v MADAM BIG
Cyril takes a job as Father Christmas and defeats the Queen of London Crime.

CYRIL BONHAMY AND OPERATION PING
Cyril finds himself leading the SAS on a dangerous mission in the Far East.

CYRIL BONHAMY AND THE GREAT DRAIN ROBBERY
Cyril gets swept up in a daring bank raid in the South of France.

CYRIL OF THE APES
At last Cyril has found himself what seems to be the perfect job: scriptwriter
on a remake of Tarzan of the Apes.

"Funny as individual episodes are, it is the portrait of an innocent abroad in a grotesque man's world that matters...All this beautifuly confirmed in Quentin Blake's inimitable drawings"
JUNIOR BOOKSHELF

"A fast, uncomplicated fantasy with a vigorus vein of humour."
