About this book

Do your briefs give you grief in the morning?

Do your knickers get tied up in knots?

Are you forced to wear tight, itchy brown ones?

Or long floppy grey ones with spots?

Getting dressed in the morning isn’t easy, especially when it comes to putting your pants on right!

But will a trip to visit Sergeant Smart at the palace help Fred get his clothing correct, or will her Majesty’s Army need some extra help too?

This silly story is a fun way to introduce personal pants-tastic hygiene and knicker know-how that will have little ones laughing all the way to the laundry basket!

One of my read-aloud highlights of the year. Getting dressed becomes a riotous adventure throught a fabulous rhyming text and suitably chaotic illustrations.
— The Bookseller
With its colourful characters set amongst ebullient scenes of underwear mayhem, be prepared for non-stop chortling and some inevitable copycat behaviour.
— Carousel
A gem of a book. I would buy this book, put it on my son’s bookcase and look forward to each and every time we read it together in the future, because I’m sure there will be many!
— The Bookbag
A silly, lively tale to encourage those children who haven’t yet learned how to dress themselves.
— Junior Magazine
Small readers can never resist the allure of a book all about pants, and this is wonderfully silly stuff, combining Hart’s Dr Seuss-style rhymes with Hodgkinson’s glorious kaleidoscopic illustrations.
— We Love This Book
Persuading small boys to get dressed should become easier after reading this wildly imaginative exploration of all things knickerish. Loads of madness and mayhem...Guaranteed to have little ones running around with their pants on their heads. Huge fun.
— Daily Mail
