The second in the hilarious series from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning author Philip Ardagh and illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler.

Mr Grunt's a man with a mission. He has to get a Person of Great Importance (or POGI) to someone called Mrs Bayliss by the twenty-fifth. Alive and well. And he can't tell anyone more than that, not even his lovely wife, Mrs Grunt, because there will be people trying to snatch the POGI and so the POGI must be transported in secret. It's an exciting adventure, but what interests Mr Grunt most are the silver coins he's been promised at the end of it. The Grunts' stolen son, Sunny, has a few questions. Who is the big-earringed cyclist? Why does the POGI have to wear a barrel all the time? Is Rodders Lasenby a lovely person or simply the rudest man on the planet? And how long will it be before they find themselves All At Sea?

Pip and Posy are typical toddlers: they are best friends and they have fun... but sometimes, just like any other toddler, they get cross and sad, so sometimes it takes friendship, sharing and understanding - and a cuddle - to make things better.

In Pip and Posy: The Super Scooter, Posy snatches Pip's scooter and tries to ride it, but she falls off and hurts her knee. Though Pip was very cross, he comes running to help her. Posy says sorry, and Pip forgives her before they all build a sandcastle in the sandpit where it's nice and soft. A charming story for the very young from the illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler, with gentle lessons about being a good friend and learning to say sorry.

The fourth book in the hilarious series from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning author Philip Ardagh and illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler.

Over the years, the Grunts have made more than a few enemies. But fortunately they're all safely behind bars. Or are they? There's been a prison break-out, and three of them are after REVENGE. It's time for the Grunts to go On the Run...

This last book brings back some familiar faces from the series and solves a couple of mysteries too...

The third in the hilarious series from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning author Philip Ardagh and illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler.

Oh no! The Grunts are on the loose. And this time they're in a VERY sticky situation. When Mrs Grunt's mother, the gloomy Ma Lunge, enters a Preserves, Jams and Jellies competition, what could possibly go wrong? Plenty. Add a nose-biting squirrel, escaped bees, rogue fireworks and crashing biplanes (AGAIN!), and you'll see why poor Sunny and Mimi have a lot on their plate. And that's BEFORE the Grunts end up in jail.

Ein Fall für Wanze Maldoon
Wanze Maldoon ist, wie der Name schon sagt, ein Käfer – und von Beruf Privatdetektiv. Der beste und billigste Schnüffler im ganzen Garten (und auch der einzige). Wozu man im Garten einen Detektiv braucht? Weil auf der großen Wiese zwischen Gänseblümchen und Löwenzahn nicht nur friedfertige Krabbeltiere wohnen, sondern auch beinharte Schurken. Als Ohrwurm Eddie verschwindet, merkt die Wanze schnell, dass dies mehr als ein Routinefall ist. Der gesamte Garten ist in allerhöchster Gefahr!
Ein packender Ermittlungsfall aus dem Insektenmilieu – verboten spannend und kriminell komisch!
»Paul Shipton hat frei nach Chandler-Manier einen packenden Krimi im Mikrokosmos des Wiesenmilieus geschrieben, der das Herz eines jeden Krimi- und Hobby-Insektologen höher schlagen lässt.« Der Tagesspiegel

The first in the hilarious series from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning author Philip Ardagh and illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler.

Mr and Mrs Grunt, who are neither clean nor clever, live with their adopted in fact, abducted son, Sunny, in a donkey-drawn caravan somewhere or other at some time that is a bit like now but not exactly now. Sunny is an oddlooking boy, what with his left ear being higher than his right ear and that kind of sticky-up hair which NEVER goes flat, even if you massage glue into it and then jump on it. Together the unusual family find themselves in frankly improbable but very funny adventures involving bendy railings, double-barrelled shotguns, full-fat yoghurt and, always, a beard of bees.
