| book description |

In a moment of fury, induced by a piece of stolen cake, Tad kicks his best friend Vlad and runs away to hide. Unable to retaliate, but similarly feeling rather cross, Vlad kicks Tad's mum who kicks the postman, who kicks a policewoman who kicks a politician . . . Until the kick travels around the whole world! Only to land back up at Tad's birthday party a year on . . . And then there's something WORSE than a kick in circulation. Oh, WHAT could be worse than a kick up the bum? It's up to Tad to wrestle with his anger and to break the cycle and send something better off round the world. Laugh-out-loud funny, with so many moments of shock and glee, this is the perfect teaching tool for any child who has ever had an outburst! For fans of I Want My Hat Back, I Really Want to Eat a Child and Not Now Bernard.
