About this deal
It’s exciting that Superworm is going to be made into a film by the great people at Magic Light, which is to be shown on television in the winter of 2021.
I won’t give away whether the worm gets saved in the end, but regardless, definitely the best kids book I’ve ever read.There's a charm, there's a wit, and there's a lightness of touch and hopefulness that fits really well into Christmas Day.
An enjoyable read but came away feeling sad as the takeaway message seems to be that nice guys finish last.
Superworm is an exceptionally long, strong and accommodating worm always happy to help out his neighbours.
