Wilf the Mighty Worrier is King of the Jungle by Georgia Pritchett

Fantastically funny Wilf was shortlisted for the Laugh Out Loud Book Awards! Meet Wilf. He worries about everything. He is a Mighty Worrier. And now the most evil man in the world has decided to take his quest for world domination on holiday to Africa... Things Wilf was worried about before: 1. Beetles. 2. Poodles. 3. Being eaten by animals. Things Wilf is worried about now: 4. The most evil man in the world. 5. Anyone called Alan. 6. Alan deciding to take his quest for world domination to Africa. Alan is Wilf's self-styled evil lunatic next-door-neighbour. He has a grumpy robot sidekick and a silent right-hand-dog, Kevin Phillips. He is ridiculous. But when Alan decides to join Wilf's family holiday to Africa and raise an army of animals in his quest for world domination, Wilf knows he will have to overcome his fear of animals and anxiety of holidays to stop him... Join Wilf for a fantastically funny adventure, illustrated throughout by Jamie Littler!
