Scribbleboy

Bailey arrives in a new neighbourhood with his extraordinary family. He has no friends but receives a mysterious invitation to join the Scribbleboy Fan Club. The one and only founder member is Ziggy Fuzz. His vital mission is to spread the word about Scribbleboy and his amazing scribbles which years ago transformed the gloomy grey concrete of the neighbourhood. Swept along in plans to discover the identity of the mythical artist, Bailey carries on his work so the scribbles start again and eventually he discovers the scribbleboy is in fact a scribblegirl!

Reviews

Poppy has graduated from picture books into these reassuring, well-observed read-alone stories about the nature of friendship and a small girl's hopes and fears

—— Glasgow Herald

Poppy's first unpleasent experience of spreading gossip will keep you turning the pages as fast as your eyes can read

—— Cork Evening Echo

Plays to every youngster's fantasy of tipping child-parent relations on their head . . . This story is perfect for children still afraid of the dark, turning fear into laughter

—— Eastern Daily Press

Jack is an engaging hero and his various scrapes and adventures are scary enough to be read by torchlight beneath the covers . . . An engaging first book in what could be a long series

—— Dundee Evening Telegraph

A suspenseful, humane story

—— Nicolette Jones , The Sunday Times
