Any ideas which book this is? Its from 40 years ago When I was at primary school the teacher read us a book, which I realised was quite challenging for 10 and 11 year olds, outlining as it did a rebellion in a dystopian urban future. She must have read it to us between 1978 and 1980 (given when I was at that school), probably 79-80 . The government used Gas Bombs and Copters (possibly Choppers) to put down the rebellion. Cars were electric, drawing power from under road cables. Some people removed the speed limiter. T Vs came with smell, the advert of a ?roast dinner? made the central character hungry. Any ideas?
