ABOUT 'CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG'
Ian Fleming, best known for his James Bond novels, wrote only one children's book-and it is a classic! "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" is the name of the flying, floating, driving-by-itself automobile that takes the Pott family on a riotous series of adventures as they try to capture a notorious gang of robbers. This is a story filled with humor, adventure, and gadgetry that only a genius like Fleming could create.
"Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang: The Magical Car" is a children's novel, written by Ian Fleming for his son Caspar, with illustrations by John Burningham. Later in the sixties, Fleming published two sequals. All three volumes were published together in 1968.
