Benny and Babe

Hilarious and brilliantly realised downloadable, abridged audiobook edition of Benny and Babe, from the bestselling author of Artemis Fowl. Read by the actor Tom Farrelly.

Benny glowered at her. Babe by name, but most certainly not by nature.

A summer in the Irish countryside is not Benny Shaw's idea of a good time. Especially since the people of Duncade don't appreciate him as the sporting prodigy that he is. All he gets is teasing, which is a favourite pastime of annoying tomboy Babe Meara.

Streetwise Benny has met his match and he doesn't know the rules of this particular game. And when Babe turns from a real pain into a real girl, the trouble well and truly begins.
