A hilarious comedy from award-winning Waterstones Children's Laureate, Frank Cottrell Boyce. When George gets an out-of-date aftershave for his birthday, he isn't particularly impressed. But the aftershave seems to have developed some extra properties…and George is now irresistible to every girl around!

But the aftershave seems to have developed extra properties since its sell-by date…Now George is irresistible to all the girls in school – and even the teachers can't get enough of him!
