Whatever you do, don't step on the crack!

Because somewhere in a particular town on a particular street there is a particular crack that could bring you bad luck!

You could turn into a pig, or your baby brother might grow fangs. Your mum might decide to go for a younger look, or worse still you might forget to put your trousers on before you go to school!

Colin McNaughton explores, with characteristic wit and exuberance, the possible dangers of ignoring this familiar lore of childhood. Bursting with colour, `Don't Step on the Crack' is guaranteed to feed the imagination and ensure a simple walk along the street will never be the same again...

`With pictures to make you laugh out loud and a wickedly amusing story, `Don't Step on the Crack' is yet another winner from Colin McNaughton.'
