Can the worst pirate ever find his way home from the Island of No Return?
Set sail with the funniest pirate on the seven seas in this hilarious adventure for readers of 7+ with brilliant pictures throughout from ALIENS LOVE UNDERPANTS illustrator Ben Cort.
My stupid brother has tricked me into the worst holiday ever… on the Island of No Return. I’m stuck here with just a chicken for company unless I can find some treasure – then Blackbeard says he will come and get me (nice of him). All I have to do is follow a treasure map through a jungle full of pirate-eating creatures (no problem), into the deepest, darkest probably-haunted cave (not at all scary, not at all scary, not at all scary) and track down the hidden gold that is so well hidden everyone gets lost trying to find it (perfect). My life is ruined. Signed Pirate Blunderbeard.
Pirate Blunderbeard might be on the worst holiday ever but it’s also the funniest – laugh-out-loud fun for readers of 7+
'Can all animals talk?' Jack asked.
'Well, of course they can,' said Boadicea the Shetland Pony. 'We're not idiots, you know.'
----------
Jack is a very small and bendy boy. So small and bendy, that he can hide inside his own school bag!
Other than bending and hiding, his favourite thing to do is to go to Old Mr Mudge's junkyard and ride the horses, Lightning and Boadicea.
It's definitely better than going home to his drippy Aunt Violet, smelly Uncle Ted and evil cousin Kelly.
But when he (accidentally) runs away, he finds himself on an adventure to free his mum from prison- with the help of a lot of talking animals!
Filled with excitement, fun and far too much horse poo, this is the hilarious new story from national treasure Ade Edmondson, author of Tilly and the Time Machine.
The Baddies are the meanest ghost, witch and troll in the land. They
adore being bad and fight over who is the nastiest. When a little
girl moves into a nearby cottage, the Baddies can't wait to
scare her out of her wits, but will they succeed?
The new picture book from the creators of The Gruffalo is a riot
of silliness and fun.

Meet the good egg. He’s a verrrrrry good egg indeed.
But trying to be so good is hard when everyone else is plain ol’ rotten.
As the other eggs in the dozen behave badly, the good egg starts to crack from all the pressure of feeling like he has to be perfect.
So, he decides enough is enough! It’s time for him to make a change…
Dynamic duo Jory John and Pete Oswald hatch a funny and charming story that reminds us of the importance of balance, self-care, and accepting those we love (even if they are sometimes a bit rotten).
Perfect for reading aloud and shared story time!
A fantastic picture book based on the CG-animated TV series – The Adventures of Paddington.
Paddington is a polite little bear from Darkest Peru who lives with a family called the Browns at 32 Windsor Gardens. He is kind, curious and rather accident-prone.
When Paddington learns all the Browns have a list of jobs to do around the house, he can’t wait to have his own. But chaos follows when he takes the wrong list!
Taking a lead from Michael Bond’s original books, and the spirit of the hugely successful Paddington movies, each new Paddington story is packed with vibrancy, humour and charm.

An exhilaratingly fresh, funny picture book with a strong message about rejecting prejudice and welcoming new arrivals from brilliantly talented debut author-illustrator Magda Brol.
Lee is a pea. All of his friends are peas; except Colin. Colin isn't a pea.
And so begins the deliciously funny story of two very different friends: a small green pea and a tall orange carrot stick. Colin the carrot can't do everything the peas can, but he has some special carrot-y qualities that make him a very good friend to have.
All about the beauty of making friends with people (or vegetables) who are different from you, boys and girls alike will love Colin and Lee's clear shapes, bright colours and the playful approach to everyday objects that make this book an instant favourite.
Made using just a collage of supermarket plastic bags and painted facial expressions, Morag Hood has created a timeless picture book with unique and engaging artwork that is brimming with warmth and humour. With the bold simplicity of Herve Tullet or Dick Bruna's Miffy, and a dry wit and charm all of Morag's own, it is a fantastically funny story that appeals to the very youngest child – and makes adults laugh out loud.
Colin and Lee, Carrot and Pea is a brilliant debut from Morag Hood, runner-up in The Macmillan Prize for Illustration.
