Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Flies Again
Frank Cottrell Boyce
The first ever sequel to Ian Fleming’s Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, written by bestselling author Frank Cottrell Boyce and endorsed by the Fleming family. When the Tooting family find a vast abandoned engine and fit it to their camper van, they have no idea of the adventure that lies ahead. The engine used to belong to an extraordinary flying car - and it wants to be back on the road again… fast! The Tootings can haul on the steering wheel and pull the handbrake as hard as they like, but their camper van now has a mind of her own. It’s not long before they’re hurtling along on a turbocharged chase as Chitty tracks down her long-lost bodywork. But there are sinister forces at work too. When it comes to a car as special as Chitty, everybody wants a piece of her…

Daniela Perinac, Readings Malvern
Fifty years since it was first published, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang finally has a sequel! Frank Cottrell Boyce has given new life to the famous flying car created by Ian Fleming in his one and only children’s story. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Flies Again has the same level of fun, quirkiness and adventure as the original.
The story centres on the Tooting family and their plans to travel around the world in an old camper van that has been refitted with a new engine. The family’s plans to visit the pyramids and go in search of lost cities are interrupted when the engine decides to lead them on a different course. The Tooting family are led on a wild adventure as the engine tries to locate and restore the original Chitty, piece by piece.
Recommended for ages eight and up.
