Frank Cottrell Boyce pens new Chitty Chitty Bang Bang books
Written by The Reader, 24th March 2011
A new series of books featuring that famous flying car Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is being written by Our Read superstar novelist and screen writer, Frank Cottrell Boyce.
The new books will tell the story of a family who get a little more than they bargained for after they soup up their VW camper van with an old racing car engine (I don't think Jeremy Clarkson is to feature...).
Frank's said that he has "no idea what made the Flemings think of asking me to write the sequel. I haven't asked them in case it's all a case of mistaken identity."
Frank, it's 'cos you're ace.
