A fun, silly story from a bestselling New Zealand author.

A young boy has a big problem: he crashed his bike and his bum fell to pieces! However, while trying to fix the damage, the boy finds himself with a new problem after a tray ends up glued to his rear! But is this problem really as bad as it seems?


Told with the same rhyming style that made Dawn McMillan's I Need a New Bum such a success, this is another fun story encouraging kids to celebrate what makes them special.


Kids will enjoy seeing our young hero explore the possibilities of his new addition, from using the tray as a makeshift sled for snowy weather, to using it as a surfboard to ride the waves.


The talented Ross Kinnaird also has a lot of fun with the illustrations too, such as when the boy exammines the broken pieces of his bum on the bathroom floor.


If you and your kids have read I Need a New Bum, then you'll enjoy this new silly story from the bestselling series.


Overall, this is a fun rhyming story with lots of cheeky humour and a positive message, perfect for kids (and grown-ups) to enjoy.
