'What if Beauty stood up to the Beast, the Princess  never tried to sleep on the pea (and wouldn’t have noticed it if she had), and the Swan Maiden took her revenge on the hunter who kidnapped her?

'The Adventurous Princess and other feminist fairy tales is a retelling of nine traditional fairy tales with a feminist twist.

'Fairy tales open up new worlds full of enchantment and adventure, but many of these traditional stories also reinforce rigid gender roles and norms, perpetuate stereotypes, and lack diversity in their characters.

'In The Adventurous Princess, the charm, whimsy, and magic of traditional fairy tales remain, but the diverse characters challenge stereotypes about who they should be or how they should act, stand up for themselves, and shape their own futures.'

'Octopussy and Other Rude Jokes is not for the faint of heart, nor those with delicate sensibilities. It epitomises all that is #NSFW. Octopussy is for anyone who says things like ‘that’s what she said!’ in a meeting or spells ‘BOOBS’ on the calculator but is definitely older than 14. If you played #CardsAgainstHumanity and giggled for a week, this is the book for you, you dirty so-and-so.'

Subtitled 'A picture book for grown-ups.'

'Super Arm-ey Heroes is the book that answers the question you never knew you had until now: What would cosplay look like at an octopus comic convention? You need wonder no more! Featuring all your favourite super heroes and plenty of villains, Super Arm-ey Heroes is both visually hilarious and obscenely punny. But be warned, saving the world is not for the prudish and this book isn’t for kids! ' (Publication summary)
