Time-travelling penguins Pablo and Splash must rescue their friend from the Ice Age in this brilliantly funny, full-colour graphic novel for young readers, in a British Book Award-shortlisted series.

’You’ll laugh your flippers off!’ John Patrick Green, creator of InvestiGATORS
‘Irresistibly funny’ Guardian on Pablo and Splash
‘Pablo and Splash are hilarious. I love this book!’ – Oscar, age 7

Pablo and Splash go to visit Professor O’Brain in her lab, only to find that their friend has been left behind in the Ice Age by her misbehaving time machine. The brave penguin buddies set out on a rescue mission – destination 68,000 years ago! When a Neanderthal man accidentally wanders into their time machine, it’s not just the professor who is stuck in the wrong time period. But luckily a scientific breakthrough for Pablo combined with Splash’s endlessly upbeat approach to life can save the day!

The race against time – several times over! – makes this pacey and hilarious graphic novel irresistible. Fans of Bunny vs Monkey or Dog Man will love it.

‘I wish I could time travel with Pablo and Splash. They make me laugh so much’ – Noah, age 8
‘Gripping and enjoyable … should be recommended whatever the age of the reader. A really fun, enjoyable read. 10/10’ Irish Times on Pablo and Splash

I like the bit when the professor went missing because it built a lot of suspense. The funniest bit was when the caveman traveled to the current world and did not know what things were. I would recommend this book to people that like reading comic books.
