Packed with giggles and wild adventures, you'll fall for Alice-Miranda

Full of humour and with very likeable characters . . . A fantastic new series about this entertaining young lady

Funny, tender and soul-searching . . . Upbeat, warm-hearted and delightful

The latest heartwarming story about this likeable character has you once again so fully immersed in his thoughts and actions there are moments when you want to shout out to him to stop him making a mistake

The Darcy Burdock series is one of my absolute favourites for younger readers. It's clever, funny and so very charming. I laughed my way through Sorry About Me, revelling in Darcy's kookiness and her ability to see the world the way she does. Surely she's now a literary icon for the 9+ age range?! Darcy is a character to love, as is her whole crazy family. The Burdocks are just so enjoyable to read about, whether they're catching mice or having a shouty rant at a horrid pet shop owner. Whatever they do, they always do it with style, and that's what makes them memorable. Sorry About Me is another genius addition to the Darcy Burdock series and I can't wait for more. I say that at the end of every book, but it's true: they're *that* good!

Anthony Browne is a sublime master of the visual pun

The Magritte of the pre-schoolers, Browne's illustrations are among the most distinctive and surreal of any children's artist. A beautiful tribute to a very special dad in a dressing gown

A celebration of all things "dad" from the quirky to the moving

It's humorous and charming. Dads and kids alike will love it
