Wu Pee will never say ‘no’ to ancient wisdom – even if he has to pinch it from the world’s most secret library.

But the celebrities in the Big Sister house want wisdom too. So they kidnap Wu Pee and he ends up on the telly with them.

Can Boffin Boy rescue Wu Pee before he gets bored to death? And will anybody crack the code that reveals the ancient wisdom?

"The Boffin Boyz is a reading group we set up to try to encourage reluctant readers who had been identified in years 4 and 5. They immediately took to the series and were extremely enthusiastic. They were (perhaps unsurprisingly) struggling writers too and the Boffin Boyz group has helped them discover an enthusiasm for writing in the short follow-up tasks I have planned to enhance our group of reading books. Although the writing tasks are not arduous, the boys are so keen to commit their ideas to paper it is a joy to see. I believe they are less inclined to view reading with dread and their willingness to share and record their ideas is a testimony to the quality of the materials and their enthusiasm for it. This is a great step forward."
