2012 Book Award Shortlist

‘The Get Rich Quick Club’ by Rose Impey

About the book:

Banksy and Baxter are next-door neighbours and business partners with one ambition: to get mega-rich! But as their daft money-making schemes spin out of control, the results are always laugh-out-loud priceless! Such as trying to start a gerbil-breeding business when they only have two gerbils to breed: a pair of unwilling males. Or converting their garden shed into an impromptu hair salon, so as to lure in the local grannies for a blue rinse! Full of crazy characters, nutty chuckles and loony schemes, this book is a comic treat you can’t afford to miss.
