The Potts are not an ordinary family, so one wouldn’t expect them to buy an ordinary car. And they don’t. 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 short story that enchanted many children and inspired a beloved motion picture. It is filled with humor, adventure, and gadgetry that only a genius like Fleming could create.
Andrew Sachs is the perfect reader for this production. His British accent sets the scene, and his proper delivery heightens the silliness as Chitty Chitty Bang Bang reveals her secrets to the Potts.

Buckle your seat belt for the first ever authorized follow-up to Ian Fleming’s only children’s story.
When the Tooting family finds an old engine and fits it to their camper van, they have no idea what kind of adventure lies ahead. The engine used to belong to an extraordinary car, and it wants its bodywork back! But as the Tootings hurtle across the world rebuilding the original Chitty, a sinister baddie is on their trail—one who will stop at nothing to get the magnificent car for himself.
Fueled by wry humor, this sequel to the children’s classic by the creator of James Bond—featuring a contemporary family and a camper van with a mind of its own—is written by best-selling, award-winning author Frank Cottrell Boyce. An interview with the reader is the last track.

Everyone’s favorite flying car shifts into another dimension as the intrepid Tooting family zooms back and forth through time.
When the Tootings return to Zobrowski Terrace at the end of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Flies Again, they find that home is looking a lot like Jurassic Park. But this is no theme park—a very real and very hungry Tyrannosaurus rex is charging them! Thanks to Dad inadvertently yanking Chitty’s “Chronojuster” lever, the spirited car has flown them back to prehistoric times, where the family—and especially Baby Harry—has a narrow escape.
But Chitty has a mind of her own, and the Tootings will get an unexpected tour of exciting times and places from Prohibition-era New York, where Chitty wants to compete in the famous Prix d’Esmerelda’s Birthday Cake race, to the lost city of El Dorado and back again, with misadventures and surprise stowaways along the way. Get ready for a hilarious high-flying adventure.
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Over the Moon
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Series, Book 4
Release date: April 7, 2015
Duration: 05:06:39
The Tootings are stuck in 1966! Somebody has stolen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and left them behind—but that’s not their biggest problem. Their biggest problem is that Little Harry has been kidnapped by whoever stole their magical car. There’s only one solution: the Tootings must find the Potts—the family that originally built Chitty. Sharing their combined knowledge of how Chitty works, the families may stand a chance of rescuing Little Harry and finding the most brilliant car in the world. But a fiendish criminal has different plans, ones that involve flying Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to the moon and putting an explosive scheme into action.
Music ends most chapters of three books and an interview with the reader is the last track of each book and of no interest to children. Narrator David Tennant has a whale of a time performing the wacky adventures of the Tooting family and the magical car, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The performance is joyous and high-spirited and appropriately over-the-top.
