Synopsis
An outrageously funny and bonkers adventure story ....

Was sweeping his floor with a broom,
When two clumps of hair leapt into the air and cried . . .
"WE ARE THE EYEBROWS OF DOOM!"'
The Eyebrows of Doom are trying to take over the world! Join Dave and his friends as they try to stop them leaping from one unsuspecting animal to the next. And just when it looks as though the eyebrow's antics have been thwarted. . . all is not as it seems! This hilarious rhyming romp will have readers young and old laughing out loud and is perfect for fans of Steve Smallman's Poo in the Zoo series, Nibbles The Book Monster, You Can't Take an Elephant on the Bus and Oi Frog!

The Eyebrows of Doom is a hilarious book! We meet big bear Dave who is happily sweeping the floor until the eyebrows of doom enter his life. After jumping onto Dave, these naughty creatures cause havoc as they invade the lives of so many on their mischievous travels, causing all that they meet to enter their world of chaos and trouble! Dave becomes rude and unkind and the animals at the zoo cause mayhem and disorder.
This funny, rhyming text cleverly tells the story of these mischievous eyebrows and also the conversation between eyebrow one and eyebrow two. These eyebrows are extremely naughty and their antics caused huge laughs and horrified faces among my children when the seagull was pounced on, and Molly too.
A fabulous text, clever illustrations and a definite opening for a sequel to The Eyebrows of Doom! My children (year 2) loved this clever book and wanted to hear it again! When a story is requested again. you know you have a winning book!
