McNeil said: " Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a classic story that truly touches the hearts of families. World rights were acquired by HCG group picture book publisher Emma Layfield and HCG senior publisher Anne McNeil in a deal done with Gordon Wise at the Curtis Brown Group on behalf of Ian Fleming Publications, Jodie Hodges at United Agents for Bently and Elizabeth Roy at Elizabeth Roy Literary Agency for Antony. Written by Fleming for his young son Caspar, it was originally published in 1964 by Jonathan Cape, two months after the author died.
The book, which is the only children’s book from the creator of James Bond, is about a magical flying car. Hachette Children's Group has signed a picture book adaptation of Ian Fleming's Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to be written by Peter Bently and illustrated by Steve Antony.
