'Green and Blue are best friends. But . . . who is the bestest? Green builds a bigger, better shell. And then Blue builds a biggerer, betterer shell! Uh-oh – I think we can guess where this is going. Who, or what, will ultimately triumph?

'Agent Harrier must discover the identity of a top-secret file-stealing traitor in the BARK intelligence agency. But something's happening to the book itself . . . whole pages are repeating, and there's an ink-deleting weapon threating to wipe everything out! What's going on? And will Agent Harrier sniff out the rat before he's TOTALLY AND PERMANENTLY ERASED? This stylish graphic novel is a funny, punny twist on the traditional spy caper. The second instalment of the Agent Harrier series by award-winning illustrator Ben Sanders (Clive Penguin), featuring books that can be enjoyed in any order. Perfect for readers transitioning from picture books!'  (Publication summary)

'I've an Uncle Ivan is a free-wheeling rhyme illustrated in a nostalgic 1950s style that introduces readers to Uncle Ivan, his extended family and 14 different modes of transport. Ivan has a niece on skates, who has two hitchhiking brothers. They have a cousin on a scooter, whose sister drives a Mini...And so it goes until we meet the whole family, who are travelling to a secret destination on every form of transport from unicycles to bi-planes to trams! But look more closely; in each picture there are clues to the true identity of this remarkable family and their exciting destination. The climax of this charming caper occurs when everyone descends upon the pie stand at once and chaos ensues.' (Publication summary)
