The Fart That Changed the World

By: Stephen Mangan

Narrated by: Stephen Mangan

A high-energy, laugh-out-loud adventure story by much-loved actor Stephen Mangan and talented artist Anita Mangan.

It’s the most important day of the year for King Fabian as he is hosting all the neighbouring rulers. Everything simply must go perfectly.

King Fabian wakes up, stretches, and farts. His wife’s fury is so huge that he panics and blames the butler, who is carted off to the dungeons. Leaving behind a big problem: Fabian isn’t really the brains behind the crown: it is the butler...how will dithery Fabian manage to pull off this high-pressure event alone?

His small and smelly fart looks like it will kick off a crisis....

Frank—a kitchen boy with a big imagination—is drafted in as an emergency butler. As the banquet descends into a food fight and processions catapult out of control, Frank finds himself in an all-out farty farce. Can he save the day?

• Wildly funny and endlessly surprising, this is delightfully imaginative, surreal storytelling with a message that small events can trigger big change, and children can be heroes!
• Packed with pictures by Stephen Mangan's sister Anita Mangan.
• Escape the Rooms is one of the most loved and bestselling children's debuts of 2021.

Funny!!

my kids LOVED this story! A great story about how any small thing can change a course of events.

Great fun for the family

We listened on a road trip and laughed so hard at times. If you like quirky and fart humor this book is fun. It shows just how crazy things can get when you don’t just own up to your fart.

Super fun!

Love it, listened to the book several times , it’s just a lot of fun good story good characters.Excellent narration.

The most entertaining narration I have ever heard!

Engaging and creative story full of twists and turns that keep you onboard throughout the tale.

Better Read the Book

A book the starts out very well and certainly funny. Unfortunately, Mangan starts to over act more and more as he goes on and I had to stop listening because he simply cannot act. I might get the printed version someday so I can finish the story.
