Ted thinks there’s something fishy going on. Ever since his birthday when he got a special loyalty card at the local shop, all his great ideas are being thought of by the new Prime Minister too. Now there’s laws about walking to school and everyone has Mondays off! Could the shop’s market research lady have anything to do with it? And if Ted has become a Leader, shouldn’t he start thinking up proper laws to save the world…? Hilariously spot-on comedy from the award winning and bestselling Frank Cottrell Boyce, with cover artwork by award-winning Chris Riddell and internal illustrations by Cate James. High quality cream paper and a special easy to read font ensure a smooth read for all.
Review
‘For children who find reading difficult, the publisher Barrington Stoke designs books with easy-to-read sentences and spacious layout. The best is Ted Rules the World (┬ú6.99) by the ever-brilliant Frank Cotterell Boyce, about ‘the most average boy in Britain’ whose birthday coincides with the election and who finds that the Prime Minister makes his every wish law’ –The Spectator
