There's
An Alien In My Belly Button by Jimmy Mars
Published
September 2012 Jelly Pie EUK Fiction
From
the publisher:
A
giggle-tastic tale of cheese, chums and chimples! If you like Captain
Underpants, you'll LOVE this . Binko the alien is in for a shock when he crash
lands in Pete Perkins' belly button. Pete's a bit surprised too. Life's great
when you have a good friend. Even better when your buddy is an alien who lives
in your bellybutton...
This
book is a super fast read, perfect for boys who haven’t quite jumped on the
reading bandwagon. Within the first 20
pages there’s mention of snot, wee, toe cheese and bottom burps.
Minding
his own business, in the early hours of the morning Pete gets an itch like he has
never felt before between his toes. Soon
after with a flash of light and a painful (for Pete) landing on his belly, we
meet Binko, an alien (a teeny one) who is on
a mission to catch the chimple (the hairy thing with teeth).
It
turns out that the chimple is the cause of the terrible itch. The chimple is a tiny alien animal (an ickimal) who loves to
eat toe cheese, and in doing so he causes the most terrible itching. So the aim now is to help Binko catch him, the only
trouble is, the chimple has escaped the bedroom and is heading for the kitchen. In the kitchen he will meet the most
disgusting member of the family, Pete's grandad, G-Bob, who has a serious aversion to bathing and he has enough toe cheese to keep the chimple happy
for a very long time.
Like
I said, this is a simple read (see pic), and it is gross! I once again, am not the target audience, and
I found myself cringing at the gross-ness, while I am sure little boys will squeal
with delight!
