A magical, mischievous adventure into an incredible new world, from Tom Fletcher, number-one-bestselling author of The Danger Gang and The Christmasaurus.

Lucy wakes up one morning to discover something very strange indeed. All the grown-ups in her town have disappeared.

All the other kids in Whiffington are so excited! No more grown-ups means no more school! No more bedtime! No more rules!

But Lucy wants her mum back – and nothing is going to stop her.

So – along with her friends Norman and Ella – Lucy sets off on an unbelievable adventure into a topsy-turvy, back-to-front and inside-out new world . . . The world underneath her bed. The world of . . . The Creakers!

The number one bestseller, packed with amazing illustrations by Shane Devries.

Praise for The Creakers:

‘Stonkingly good . . . A compelling adventure and a nuanced celebration of friendship and family love’ The Guardian

Really enjoyed this book, it was scary in parts. My favourite character was Lucy as she was very brave and determined to find all the parents whilst in a chaotic situation.

I would recommend it to someone adventurous and interesting because a girl named lucy dungston finds these monsters called creakers. But are they really monsters or are they just upset? +

I would recommend it because it is scary and funny and my favourite part is when at the end they all learnt to live together.
