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.

Lisa Owens will be joining us at House of Books and Friends on Wednesday 1st July to discuss her new title ‘Natural Disaster‘ and we can't wait! 🐍 📚

The evening will begin at 6pm, and involve a discussion, a Q&A, and a chance to get your book signed by Lisa! ✨

About the book:
For weeks, she has been saying it will be their special day. One last, perfect day with her children before she returns to work after maternity leave. What’s the worst that can happen?

Unfolding across 24 hours, Natural Disaster is a novel about the absurd, frustrating, hilarious, precarious, bittersweet, sometimes astonishing challenge – literal, existential – of being a woman, a mother, a wife, a person for one single, entire day.

To get tickets, check out the link in our bio! 🔗

In the lead up to summer you may find yourself leaning more towards shorter books that you can finish in one sitting. Here are some recommendations that are 200 pages or less that we believe are the perfect picks for train journeys, sitting on the beach, or simply filling your time in these longer evenings.🌻
Let us know if you have any other recommendations you think we have missed!📚
