Brilliant - funny and heart warming and weird!
Firstly, my very white children were baffled by the references to Asian food, and made us try every single one mentioned in the book - brilliant way to educate them about a culture which we know little about. Secondly, every bee we meet is now called Mustafa, much to the bewilderment of their friends! Thirdly, this has to be the funniest book I have read with them since Mr Gum - some absolutely hilarious lines, and the name of the headmaster made me snort EVERY time I read it. Hilarious! And finally, just a really heartwarming book about friendship and family and aliens. Every child should read this book!

Love you Humza and #gethimtomillionsub 😀
I'm a huge fan of Humza seens 2014, his YouTube contents and short films. He comes every time with a very nice story and a deep message in every videos. I really love his way of making contents and i was really exited to see him realising a book. I know it's been a while since he released it bu finally i bought it to support him and can't wait to finish reading it to get to know the message that hiding behind the book ☺️

Brilliant kids book!
Read this book with my six year old and we both loved reading it. Him because it is very funny, exciting, just the right level of scary, uses language he could relate to, has some fun pictures and taught him a magic trick. Me because it’s very funny, easy to read, has lead characters who aren’t white, and introduces children to other cultures in a way that isn’t always readily available to them. Oh and it taught me a magic trick. Hope this book finds its way into lots of school libraries, and children’s bookshelves. We’ve already passed our copy on.

An original, hilarious, exciting and surprisingly touching read that my U9’s loved.
I can’t remember exactly how I came to know about this book but I can honestly say that both myself and my two U9’s have loved every single page. This is a funny, charming, exciting, surprisingly touching and excellently written story. We’ve loved following Humza, Umer and Wendy Wang on their extraordinary adventure. You invest in the characters, care about the outcome and it’s great to see the cultural references sprinkled throughout. I’ve not heard my kids laugh so much during bedtime books! So this is highly recommend and we’re ready to begin ‘The Time Travelling Teacher of Doom’.

Makes you laugh and maybe cry too.
My year 5 book club loved this book. Read in the time of covid we all needed a good laugh and this book provides it in the bucket load. The mental image of a donkey being slapped about by a dolphin ( or was it the other way round??) will stay with all of us. We were all gripped right until the very end and it doesn't disappoint. Joyful
