The Shark-Headed Bear Thing

Ten-year-old orphan Benjamin Blank battles monsters, rescues maidens and discovers fantastic new lands, but never quite manages to get his homework handed in on time. The first book in a hilarious new adventure series.

Benjamin Blank is in search of adventure. So when a shark-headed bear-thing starts terrorising a nearby village, Ben grabs his magic gauntlet and sets off to vanquish the beast! Bun the course of true adventure does not run smoothly. Ben will need all his cunning to save the day, and it'd be good if he knew how to work his gauntlet too...
