Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade
Series: Beano

Join Minnie for this next adventure in Beanotown, along with Dennis and Gnasher!

Bash Street have made it through to the knockout stages of Super Epic Turbo Cricket European Tour of Mischief for the first time in forever, and due to a case of mistaken identity owing to a rogue Gnasher racing onto the pitch, Minnie has just been made team captain! This should be amazing news, except Minnie's parents don't seem to be happy for her . . . In fact, now that Minnie thinks about it, they haven't been happy in a long while.

Join Minnie on her mission to cheer up her parents again the best way she knows how: with a Super Epic Turbo PRANK.

Will it work, or will it unearth what's really going on?

Perfect for kids with parents who are splitting up - or just want to read a mega-funny story!

Review quotes

Great to see Minnie in her own adventure full of fun and feels - keep on Minxing Minnie, you're an icon for we Minxes everywhere! - Maz Evans, author of Who Let the Gods Out?

Full of comedy, capers and reassuring messages to children whose parents are splitting up, this marvellous Minnie mission is joyous fun from start to finish. - Lancashire Evening Post

Channelling all the mischief and mayhem of the Beano, this is jam-packed with jokes, cartoons and, well, beans, all sure to delight fans of the comic. As an added treat, there are comic-style instructions at the very back to encourage readers to produce their own boomic. Great fun for all. - December Book of the Month in LoveReading4Kids

Minnie is just as much fun as she always was and young readers will love her anarchic behaviour - either alone, or with cousin Dennis - but the story is not all fun and games. When Minnie realises that her parents' relationship is in trouble, she faces a future that is not what she anticipated - something that many young readers will empathise with and which is tackled very well here. Added into the mix to balance this out though are plenty of fart gags and some brilliant illustrations from Laura Howell to bring the plot to life wonderfully well, creating a great read for Year 3 upwards that will be just as popular in Year 6. - World's Smallest Library

It really is hilarious - and features the biggest prank in Bean-o history - but also balances sensitivity around parental separation. This particular story, along with Minnie's aspirations around her artwork, adds another layer of depth to Minnie and her friends so bravo Beano for making these loveable characters more multi-faceted. A brilliant addition to the Beano world, you'll love Minnie even more after this latest escapade! - Check 'Em Out Books

I.P. Daley is the latest author to chronicle the adventures of the fantastic Dennis and Gnasher. Having spent many years as a reporter for the Beanotown Gazette, I.P. knows her subject and is good friends with the Beano Editor. She's inspired by tricks, pranks and jokes, and even boasts a doctorate in gelotology (the science of laughter), giving her the unprecedented ability to document the dynamic duo's exploits with rib-tickling tales.

I.P. is ably assisted by Craig Graham and Mike Stirling who were both born in Kirkcaldy, Fife, in the same vintage year when Dennis became the cover star of Beano. Ever since, they've been training to becomes the Brains Behind Beano Books (which is mostly making cool stuff for kids from words and funny pictures). They've both been Beano Editors, but now Craig is Managing Editor and Mike is Editorial Director (ooh, fancy!) at Beano Studios.
