The Peculiar Triumph Of Professor Branestawm by Hunter
He's madly sane and cleverly dotty. He's the craziest genius you'll ever meet and he's about to cause havoc in Pagwell with his wild inventions . . . The lovable Professor Branestawm, with his five pairs of spectacles and his pockets full of all manner of things, is back! Norman Hunter's irrepressible humour packs every page and the illustrations (by the well-known cartoonist, George Adamson) entirely capture the eccentricity of the Professor and the hilarity of his incredible adventures.
Professor Branestawm and Mrs Flittersnoop have been part of our family since before time beganIt's thrilling to welcome back the lunatic genius of our beloved Norman Hunter -- Joanna Lumley
