What happens when everyone's bums in the whole town are stolen? And how do you get them back? A wacky story from an award-winning author, Tim Winton.
Skeeta Anderson woke up one morning to find that his bum was gone. And not only his bum, but the bum of every single person in the town of Bugalugs. It's up to Skeeta to catch the thief ...
'Irreverent, ocker and great fun, Wemyss's light hearted re-telling, complete with silly sound effects, is verbal slapstick at its best.'
Magpies Magazine
'Tim Winton may be one of Australia's most famous authors of serious adult fiction, but one hearing of The Bugalugs Bum Thief will make you wish he'd write more often for children. This is a ridiculously sublime story about what happens when everyone in town wakes up to find their - ahem - bums missing.'
