Description

If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. After snagging his toe, Mr Nogginbody visits his local hardware shop in search of solutions. Armed with a shiny new hammer, he successfully fixes the nail protruding from his floor. But the satisfaction of his first repair carries him away and he figures that anything resembling a nail—from a lamp switch to a fire hydrant—can be fixed with a good whack. The results are predictably and theatrically disastrous until Mr Nogginbody arrives at a gentle awakening and recognises that not everything is a nail.

Media Reviews

A novel hero and a novel way to introduce a new generation to an old saying.
Shannon's latest has the timeless exuberance and psychological profundity of a great comedy. In short: nailed it.
Storytime getting sleepy? FIXED IT!
Children will delight in Mr. Nogginbody's well-meaning and ridiculous fix-it attempts that yield comical destruction, and readers who take their stories on the sweeter side will be pleased that it ends on a gentle note.
The humorous concept and brief text married to hilarious illustrations make this a great choice for story time or one-on-one sharing.
