Meet Wilf. He worries about everything. He is a Mighty Worrier. And now the most evil man in the world has moved in next door…

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 anxiety and fears. And soon he realises: only he can stop Alan’s ridiculous yet still Quite Evil plan to destroy the world…

Join Wilf for a fantastically funny adventure, illustrated throughout by Jamie Littler!

Reviews

Guardian Children's Book Reviews
Funny, imaginative and adventurous...anyone should read this to turn their frown upside down.
Jacqueline Wilson
A lively, funny story that should delight and reassure many children who are worriers themselves
Miranda Hart
Genuinely touching and wonderfully funny. A total delight of a, what I call, book.
Anna Loudon, Booktrust
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
Mother Daughter Bookclub
An endearing story that will have worriers everywhere cheering for this unlikely hero
