Things Wilf was worried about before:

1. Stuffed animals 2. Peanut Butter 3. Creepy crawlies that have waggly feeler things instead of

eyes

Things Wilf is worried about now:

4. The most evil man in the world 5. The most evil man in the world living next door 6. Anyone

called Alan.

When Alan, a self-styled Evil Lunatic, moves in next door with his grumpy robot sidekick and his

silent right-hand-dog, Kevin Phillips, Wilf knows he will have to find a way to overcome his

fears. And soon he realises: only he can stop Alan's ridiculous yet still Quite Evil plan to destroy

the world . . .

Reviews for Wilf the Mighty Worrier Saves the World: Book 1

With fantastic attention to all the funny details that make Wilf's life (and his nemesis, Alan) so worrisome, this is a truly laugh-out-loud read that also has a reassuring message for children who worry about the world -- Anna Loudon * Booktrust * An endearing story that will have worriers everywhere cheering for this unlikely hero * Mother Daughter Bookclub * Funny, imaginative and adventurous...anyone should read this to turn their frown upside down. * Guardian Children's Book Reviews * Genuinely touching and wonderfully funny. A total delight of a, what I call, book. * Miranda Hart * A lively, funny story that should delight and reassure many children who are worriers themselves * Jacqueline Wilson *
