The Robot Dinner Lady

We have met Jake Cake before, and discovered his amazing ability to unearth the truth behind KS1 life. Werewolves, witches, goblins and robots, which masquerade as ordinary people and are the real cause of our getting into trouble at home and school.

In these three short stories Michael Broad allows Jake to tell his own incredible, hilariously illustrated, tales of the mayhem which follows when a normal small boy investigates a variety of what seem to him to be unbelievable events.

Jake's misadventures will reassure any child who feels that they are powerless to shape their own life, and Broad suggests some suitably fantastic and funny explanations for the apparently random bad luck which strikes at school and home.
