Dexter Procter the 10-Year-Old Doctor
(Autor) Adam KayIt was clear from an early age that Dexter Procter was different. He started speaking at four seconds old. By the age of three, he had 87 A-levels, from Afrikaans to Zoology. And by ten, he was working as a paediatrician at Lilydale General Hospital. Despite a loving but annoying family and a couple of good friends (Rupi and Otto), Dexter's always struggled to fit in. Add to this a mortal enemy (Dr Drake) and a major problem at his old school (all the teachers struck down with awful diarrhoea) - will Dexter be able to save his job, save the school and find his place in the world? (Spoiler alert- yes!) A laugh-out-loud new fiction series about the world's youngest doctor from the record-breaking Adam Kay and Henry Paker. 'Original, very funny, ultra-informative - and children will love all the disgusting parts.' Jacqueline Wilson 'If laughter truly is the best medicine, book this hilarious appointment with Dr Procter immediately.' David Baddiel
