Amy Gets Eaten: The laugh-out-loud picture book from bestselling Adam Kay and Henry Paker

Product Information

We are introduced to Amy - a piece of sweetcorn – at the start of the book, but there’s no chance to talk to her as Noah has just eaten her on a giant slice of pizza! Amy’s story follows her adventure through Noah’s digestive system, and she is very excited about it. She passes reassurance onto the other bits of food as they are absorbed into Noah’s body to be used for important tasks. Apart from the baked beans – we all know what they do! Paker’s vibrant and zany illustrations, here in full colour glory, are the perfect foil for Kay’s nerdy enthusiasm for explaining how bodies work. Young children are completely fascinated by everything toilet related and immediately recognising the emoji style poo on the cover, will find the book irresistible. The story follows Amy on her funny, gooey and anatomically-accurate adventure through the human body as she discovers lots of facts about digestion. This is pretty gross, but the human body is a bit gross. It's just a fact. It's also a humorous take on the fact that corn is often undigested...

The story of Amy is a story that takes us through the human digestive system, anatomically correctly too. From the duo behind the award winning and best-selling Kay’s Anatomy and Kay’s Marvellous Medicine we have a debut picturebook that proves they are just as successful at communicating biological facts accurately for three-to five-year-olds, as they are for older readers. The first-ever picture book from Adam Kay and Henry Paker. This is the hilarious (and admittedly a tiny bit gross) tale of Amy, a small piece of sweetcorn who is eaten by Noah, a medium-sized boy. It's not totally correct, as your breakfast will have been turned into liquid long before your dinner gets into your stomach, and food isn't absorbed out of your stomach in whole pieces.This is the hilarious (and admittedly a tiny bit gross) tale of Amy, a small piece of sweetcorn who is eaten by Noah, a medium-sized boy.

Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical Moments Thankfully, Tremain’s debut is first class. When Oliver finds a little rusty bundle in a field one day, his mum cleans it off, and the metal bird they discover starts slowly coming to life. Named Iron Robin, the bird manages to survive the fiery tongue of Oliver’s soft toy Draggi before being thrown on to the school roof and lost by some older kids. Months pass, but when a storm hits the school he ends up saving the day. Longer than the average picture book, Iron Robin combines everyday childhood themes with a pinch of fantasy, all brilliantly visualised by Jones’s expressive artwork. The approaching storm depicted as a thundering mass of galloping horses and a warrior raining down silver arrows is particularly striking.

The trend for acclaimed novelists of adult fiction to sidestep into picture books shows no signs of abating. Both Maggie O’Farrell and Zadie Smith have had triumphs in recent years and now, 40 years (and umpteen books) since being named one of Granta’s best of young British novelists in 1983, Rose Tremain joins in with Iron Robin (Puffin, 18 May), a beautiful story inspired by a tiny metal bird she found in a junk shop in southern France, with illustrations by Richard Jones.

Adam Kay is a multi-award-winning writer, comedian and former doctor. His first book, an undergraduate textbook called Rapid Obstetrics and Gynaecology didn't do particularly well, but his next two did rather better.
