Can a TURKEY bring best friends Hamza and Kit back together?
Kit is furious following a betrayal by his oldest friend, Hamza -over a girl?! He wants nothing to do with him until the boys are offered a lot of money to do a job for one of their neighbours.
The job is to deliver a turkey to an address across London before it gets cold. Weird but pretty simple, right? But that's before it turns into a hilarious, hysterical race against time, the police, the bomb squad and a scary street gang.
Can Kit and Hamza make it in time, and will they ever speak to each other again if they do?
Particularly suitable for readers aged 11+ with a reading age of 7.
Reviews / Votes
"Funny and exciting, with a surprise at the end. The boys get themselves into various ridiculous situations as it becomes a race against time. The theme of male friendship isn't often explored in fiction, and after reading this, the reader may consider accepting their mates for who they are, even if they do occasionally do stupid things. (Though if you're the one who betrayed your mate, you should apologise!)" - BookTrust, Book of the Day "Are they going to make it despite their hapless Laurel-and-Hardyesque mishaps with an unscheduled stop at their favourite fried chicken shop, a brush with underground trains and a short-cut that takes them into gangland territory? ... you're going to have plenty of fun finding out for yourself." - The Letterpress Project "The book takes lots of unexpected twists and turns from serious to silly situations ... I especially recommend this book for slow readers and people looking for a quick and fun book as it was very enjoyable." - Student review, Teen Titles "What I really liked about the book is that it talks about 'rizz' ... Cold Turkey is one of the best fast readers I have read in my school years." - Student review, Teen Titles "Full of Simon's razor-sharp observations, his trademark humour and brilliantly illustrated by Tosin Akinkunmi, this is a wonderful short story about friendship and betrayal." - Mrs Sydney's Famous World's Smallest Library, blog "Lots of snappy dialogue, witty banter and moments of hilarity in this jolly caper ... with a kind observation of the importance of loyalty, friendship and forgiveness." - A Library Lady, blog "A hilarious trip with a turkey across London attempts to heal the rift between two best friends. A great story to explore how to overcome disagreements within friendships, and to remember the importance of simply having fun together." - Library Looter, blogMore details
