Synopsis

It's Little Archie's birthday and orderly Mum and Dad give him orderly presents, which he must open in an orderly fashion - no paper ripping! But barmy Uncle Bernie gives him something altogether different - a bottle of Magic Shrinking Powder! Unable to resist, Little Archie swallows some - fizz and all. Suddenly, Archie finds himself only three inches tall and tiny enough to be popped in the post...soon he is off around the world. The question is, how will Archie get back before his parents notice? The perfect book for readers big and small! 'Small but perfectly formed, the "Little Archie" books are a delight' - Chris Riddell, award-winning author and illustrator. 'Fast-paced, warm-hearted, boisterous and fun. Kids will love it!' - Giles Andreae (aka Purple Ronnie), award-winning author.
