Funny, exciting and brilliantly clever, Frank Cottrell-Boyce's Millions is a fantastic adventure about two boys, one miracle and a million choices. Perfect for boys and girls of 8 to 12.

What would you do with a million pounds? Buy a thousand pizzas? Give it to charity?

When a bag stuffed full of money drops out of the sky, Damian and Anthony find themselves rich. Very rich indeed. Suddenly the brothers can buy anything they want. They've got millions - but only seventeen days to spend it.

An incredible tale of brothers and lots and lots of pizza, Millions won the CILIP Carnegie medal and is celebrating twenty years of bestselling success.

This edition of Frank Cottrell-Boyce's Carnegie Medal-winning Millions features fantastic cover artwork from the brilliant Steven Lenton.

Millions is also a major film directed by Oscar-winner Danny Boyle.

Damian's voice leaps off the page and into your heart. Millions is fresh, funny, touching and wise.
Deliciously funny
Pure gold
Written with charm and humour, this is a touching, absorbing oddity of a book about love, grief, avarice and generosity.
Packed with wisdom and humor, this is one of the books that showed me how it was done when I was starting out (Ben Davis, author of the Soup Movement)
a joyous romp of a story that has takes young readers across the gamut of emotions.

The story has something for everyone. My boys, aged 8 and 10, laughed at the funny bits, and were gripped throughout. A thoroughly entertaining, touching clever story. highly recommend it

I only read this book because it was on the reading list for a course I am taking in writing for children. It was recommended text for the lecture on creating voice and whilst I learnt some useful things on this topic I also had a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience and a lesson in not being put off by the particular genre box a novel may have been placed in. I’ve been going through a spate of starting books and then abandoning them after only a chapter or two because the content and/or characters are just too hard to take. Maybe it is something to do with the personal and societal challenges that a year of pandemic have brought but I didn’t have the stomach for tragedy, highly disturbed characters, death, relational toxicity, pessimism about humanity and life in our times because of the terrible effect these books were having on my mood and state of mind and I needed something hopeful and uplifting. It was my good luck that I chanced on ‘Millions’ and an added bonus that it was narrated so brilliantly by the droll Stephen Tompkinson. The story-line is original, believable and gripping, the characters, perfectly imperfect and the resolution is satisfying. I recommend it highly to children and adults alike.
