Description
Hamish and the WorldStoppers is the fast-paced, hilarious, and delightfully strange first book in Danny Wallace’s wildly imaginative Hamish series—perfect for fans of David Walliams, Roald Dahl, and madcap adventures with a twist of sci-fi.
Meet Hamish Ellerby—just your average eleven-year-old kid… until one day, everything stops.
Not just people. Everything.
Cars freeze in place. Birds hang motionless in the sky. Raindrops dangle in mid-air. Even time itself seems to stand still. Everyone and everything is completely frozen—except for Hamish.
And he’s not alone.
Soon Hamish discovers that he’s one of a secret few who can move during these strange moments, known as “the Pause.” But there’s something terrifying behind these mysterious stops—the WorldStoppers. Creepy, shadowy creatures from another dimension are sneaking through during the Pauses, and they’re up to no good.
It’s up to Hamish and his unlikely team—the brave and bizarre Pause Defence Force—to stop the monsters before they take over the world. But can a group of kids really defeat creatures that shouldn’t even exist?
Filled with laugh-out-loud humor, wild imagination, quirky characters, and a huge dose of heart, Hamish and the WorldStoppers is an exciting romp that celebrates courage, friendship, and the weirdness of being a kid in a world full of secrets.
