#1 - Danger Is Everywhere: A Handbook for Avoiding Danger
Taken from the notebooks of the enigmatic and ultra-cautious dangerologist Docter Noel Zone, DANGER IS EVERYWHERE is a brilliantly funny handbook for avoiding danger of all kinds.

DOES IT WARN YOU ABOUT WHAT TO DO IF A SHARK COMES UP OUT OF THE LOO WHILE YOU ARE SITTING ON IT?
Yes it does.

AND WHAT TO DO IF A VOLCANO ERUPTS UNDERNEATH YOUR HOUSE?
After you've made sure it's not a neighbour's barbecue, this book will let you know exactly how to deal with it.
#2 - Danger is Still Everywhere: Beware of the Dog (Danger is Everywhere book 2)
#2 - Danger is Still Everywhere: Beware of the Dog (Danger is Everywhere book 2)
Will Docter Noel Zone's second book tell you how to combat a CROCUUM*? YES
And reveal the secrets of the world's greatest (and only) Dangerologist? THAT TOO.
Has he written it yet? NO
Is it because he's hiding in a wardrobe? MAYBE

Docter Noel is facing his most terrifying situation EVER - a little dog called Napkin has come to stay. That may not sound particularly dangerous, but every POD (Pupil of Dangerology) knows the only safe pet is a pet rock. So now Docter Noel is stuck in a wardrobe while Napkin wreaks havoc around the Dangerzone. And all the while Docter Noel is supposed to be writing his new VERY IMPORTANT handbook on Dangerology (Level 2).

That is until the Pet of the Year competition is announced and Docter Noel hatches a plan to impress his neighbor Gretel. There's only one problem. Serial safety-flouter Max WURST is the judge. . .

For Docter Noel, it's never been clearer that DANGER IS STILL EVERYWHERE
*A crocodile that looks like a vacuum cleaner that lives under the stairs.
#3 - Danger Really is Everywhere: School of Danger (Danger is Everywhere 3)
#3 - Danger Really is Everywhere: School of Danger (Danger is Everywhere 3)
The world's greatest (and only) DANGEROLOGIST is back to make YOU into a Level 3 DANGEROLOGIST in his new SCHOOL OF DANGER handbook.

Following a mishap involving his DANGER MOBILE (shopping trolley) and the local school dinner lady, Docter Noel Zone joins the teaching staff to help out.

WARNING! BEWARE! CAUTION! Any POD (Pupil of Dangerology) knows that schools are full of DANGER - from VAMPIRE teachers to HAUNTED BOOKS! And when bikes start to go missing from around school, to Docter Noel, it's never been clearer that DANGER REALLY IS EVERYWHERE.
