I have just finished reading Bob Vs The Selfie Zombies by Andy Jones and wonderfully illustrated by Robin Boyden. Aimed at readers aged 8-12 years old the cover is fun and appealing. I liked the colours used. The story is based around a young boy called Bob, who unexpectedly becomes Future Bob, time travelling 20 years to meet his future self. In 2043 Future Bob tries to stop the world being taken over by selfie zombies. I liked the references to technology and the possible smart features of the future!

Back in 2023 Bob and his friends are part of a band, The Tentacles of Time. They are entering a talent competition but through time travel they could affect the outcome of this.

This book would make a great read alone or bedside story read for children who like time travel. There is also a more poignant theme running through the book of bereavement and loss.
