Synopsis

Like boats? Like bouncing? Like to see a BOUNCING boat? Read this book and you ... might! You'll never guess what Hooey, Will and Twig are up to now - they've only gone and built a crazy bouncing boat to enter the Shrimpton-on-Sea home-made boat race! But who's that coming up on the outside? Is that Grandad in a battleship? Bob the Baker in a doughnut dinghy? Philbert the farmer on a floating cow? And where's that BASBO? Madness! Chaos! Marshmallows with too many E-numbers! Grab your paddles - WE'RE OFF!

Media Reviews
He is on top form in a tale about three boys building a bouncing boat. Emma Dodson's explosive illustrations add to the fun. -- Nicholas Tucker * The Independent on Sunday *
...existing fans of Hooey will not be disappointed. New fans will welcome the continued slapstick which permeates the book at every twist and turn - and will be rolling around with laughter as things continue in that vein. Reluctant readers will find that this book is worth picking up for a good laugh. A welcome addition to the class library. * Books For Keeps *
The quirky illustrations add to the humour and give life and laughter to an already funny and fast moving text * Carousel *
Author Bio
Steve Voake lives in Somerset. As well as the Hooey series, he has written five Daisy Dawson books for Walker. He is also the author of six novels for older readers, including The Dreamwalker's Child. Steve grew up in the countryside and used to be a naughty, scruffy boy just like Hooey. He still dreams about making stuff explode and riding his bike off a pier into the sea, but fears he is too old to get away with it.
