Description

Return to Grimwood in the wildly funny fifth book in Nadia Shireen’s bestselling and brilliantly anarchic illustrated comedy-adventure series. Perfect for readers age 7 to 107, fans of Dog Man, Roald Dahl, Bunny vs Monkey and David Walliams, and anyone who loves to laugh.

‘Our finest children’s author’ – Richard Osman 

Grimwood needs a new mayor! Titus has finally decided he’s had enough, leaving behind big antlers to fill. With characters new and old throwing their hats into the ring, who has what it takes, who has a hidden agenda, and who is simply in it for the parties? The only people who can decide the fate of Grimwood are . . . the residents of Grimwood. Oh no. 

Fully illustrated throughout and full of heart, laughs and surprises, this is the must-read fifth title in the bestselling and fantastically funny Grimwood series.

PRAISE FOR GRIMWOOD:

‘Ted and Nancy are my favourite funny foxes EVER.’ - Liz Pichon, author of Tom Gates

‘I CACKLED ALOUD on practically every page. Comic gold, tinged with such tenderness.’ - Kiran Millwood Hargrave

‘Pure genius!’ – Louie Stowell

‘Made us laugh out loud.’ - Jim Smith, author of Barry Loser

‘Grimwood is where I want to be. A carnival of crazed confused comical critters that is more real than real life. Lots of things make me laugh but Grimwood makes me laugh out loudest.’ - Frank Cottrell-Boyce

Bookseller Jessica thinks 'The Frozen River' by Ariel Lawhon should be your next read!
"When the Kennebec River freezes over during another brutal winter, Martha Ballard, a local midwife is called upon to identify a corpse trapped within, to determine a cause of death. However, the mystery deepens as Martha realises the dead man had recently been accused of rape by a local woman and Martha had acted as witness during the case.
Based on the diaries of Martha Ballard whose family has a historical link to the founder of The Red Cross, Clara Barton."
