Description

Once upon a time was only the start… welcome to the Fairytale Woods! Take a look inside the big bad wolf’s hilarious secret diary in this instant bestseller from author, comedian and actor Ben Miller.

*DIARY OF A PUSS IN BOOTS AVAILABLE OUT NOW* 

‘I need to raise my game again now spring is here, and get back in shape. Show the pack and the rest of these woods I’m BIG and I’m BAD, and I’m not to be messed with.’

The big bad wolf hasn’t had a great winter. He’s cold, lonely and hungry . . . But things are about to change – he’s going to take the Fairytale Woods by STORM.

But while he knows he’s BIG and BAD, no one else seems to be scared of him, they just keep meddling with his plans – the troll under the bridge, the three annoying pigs, and that pesky Little Red Riding Hood! This is going to take all his brain power and his most cunning smile, to catch Grandma and reclaim his place at the top of the food chain!

Come down to the Fairytale Woods and discover what your favourite characters are really thinking in the bestselling series from Ben Miller, illustrated by Elisa Paganelli.

Thank you to everyone who joined Laviya for The Global Stories Book Club very first session! It was a great turn out and a brilliant discussion and we can't wait to host the next one!

The next session will take place on Wednesday 7th October at 6pm and we will be discussing Cursed Daughters by Oyinkan Braithwaite. 📚

The cafe will be open until 6pm to ensure you have all the hot drinks you need during the session! ☕

About the book:
No man will call your house his home. And if they try, they will not have peace... So goes the family curse, handed down from generation to generation, ruining families and breaking hearts as it goes. And now it's calm, rational Eniiyi's turn - who, due to her uncanny resemblance to her dead aunt, Monife, and her family's insistence that she must be a reincarnation, has long been used to some strange familial beliefs.
Still, when she falls in love with the handsome boy she saves from drowning, she can no longer run from her family's history. Is she destined to live out the habitual story of love and heartbreak, or can she escape the family curse and the mysterious fate that befell her aunt?

Get your tickets via the link in our bio! 🔗
