Weenie and Pig go on a ‘Treasure Hunt!’ in the mouldering pile of toxic rubbish kindly left by the Hyoomanz, but find no shield from the badger’s latest infamy: mind controlling everyone and turning the Woods into his digital plaything in ‘Game Over!’ Little Sid discovers the unexpected consequences of not covering his nose when sneezing in Simon Philips’s hilarious, riotous romp of a read, with Nathan Reed’s bright, colourful illustrations perfectly showcasing all that explosive energy. Written and illustrated by two magicians from the world of children’s books, this is an effortlessly beautiful, read-aloud storybook to share with a very small person.

Problems are exacerbated by the other unconventional Crinkle creatures, particularly a skunk called Skunky who has a mad scientist’s attitude to life and a propensity to build extremely dangerous robots and super-weapons…

Universal innocents Weenie squirrel and Pig have their own way of de-stressing and not even roving robot drones can upset ‘A Quiet, Uneventful Day’ on the lake. Old animosities are paused and enemies become temporary allies planning to resist through ‘Distraction’ and strategic deployment of brain-battered, bewildered suicide bomber/former stuntman Action Beaver, but when that scheme flops we instead focus on ‘A Sad Skunk’ as the original mad scientist undergoes an existential crisis and needs Bunny to share it with…

About Jamie Smart

The cataclysmic end begins when the Maniacal one pressgangs ‘The Badger Army’ to do his bidding but forgets the species’ tendency to unionise even as Skunky creates a ‘Terraforming Orb!!’ to purpose-build a new world. It’s a shame Monkey dropped it on his own head while it was switched on… Terror – The Horror Comic Art of Jayme Cortez (volume 1) & Macabras – The Horror Comic Art of Jayme Cortez (volume 2) urn:lcp:bunnyvsmonkey0000smar:epub:cbfb9a42-5351-47b5-aa52-fd5c77c0d5dc Foldoutcount 0 Identifier bunnyvsmonkey0000smar Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t9095f98j Invoice 1652 Isbn 0545861845 Wished by Lissa Evans is a modern classic. It combines heart and humour seamlessly, and features the pithiest talking cat I've ever encountered in a book. It's the kind of book that somehow feels fresh and original, whilst also reminding you of all the books that built your childhood. Always, Clementine by Carlie Sorosiak For us it’s got to be ‘Dogs in Disguise’ by Peter Bently and John Bond because it’s so gloriously and joyously silly! Just imagining the thought process that led to this picture book gives us hope for humanity!

The Horse that Jumped' by Thomas Docherty is a lovely bedtime book for little ones. With a short, easy-to-read text and friendly illustrations to enjoy, it's the simple but satisfying tale of a girl and horse taking a magical ride together. Sharing this gentle book would be a soothing experience. What an innovative way to learn all about the key points of development on life on earth - as seen through an imaginative stage show put on by Rod the Roach and his troupe in the shoebox theatre!The animal anarchy might end for now there’s one more secret to share with detailed instructions on ‘How to Draw Maniacal Badger’so, as well as beguiling your young ‘uns with stories, you can use this book to teach them a trade… Bunny becomes guinea pig when Skunky and Monkey test emotion-warping Mind Mines in ‘Highly Strung!’ and as ‘Autumn begins The Rise of an Empire!’ finds expansionist Monkeytopia devasted by its ruler’s idiocy, even as the badger traps the woodland creatures inside his new phone app in ‘Game On!’ It’s a huge, costly mistake… A beautiful story that highlights the power we all have to make a difference in our local environments by planting trees. Glowrushes by Roberto Piumini Yes and no. With comics you’re spelling everything out visually, but writing a novel is a much wider canvas with more space for the reader to interpret what you’re telling them, and it took me a long time to learn how to work with that. With Flember I’ve had the chance to tell a huge, epic fantasy tale. There’s still plenty of toilet humour and characters falling over, but on a much grander stage. The market for illustrated books is growing. Why do you think comics and graphic novels are doing so well as part of this sector? I’m also going for The Greatest Show on Earth by Mini Grey - it’s a brilliant picture book about the history of the planet earth drawn with plenty of wit and wonder. A perfect introduction to natural history! Dogs in Disguise by Peter Bently and John Bond
