'Hilarious, off-the-wall and great fun' Sun
Squirrel and Duck, the world's only two talking animals, have noticed something: dogs are acting peculiarly everywhere. It's the first clue to a shocking truth - ALIENS are invading, they're taking over dogs' bodies, and ONLY Squirrel and Duck can stop them!
A fully illustrated story that readers who love to laugh - and their families - will lap up. Don't miss the first book in the series, Squirrel and Duck: Mission Improbable.
Tom Percival is the talented and highly acclaimed author of the Big Bright Feelings picture books for younger children.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Irritable Squirrel and jolly, sanguine Duck live together in an abandoned fibreglass tree - until their home is destroyed and they're drawn into a saga of stolen paintings and helicopter heists in their quest for a new one. A hilarious, highly illustrated beginning to an addictive new 6+ series. -- Imogen Russell-Williams * Guardian on 'Squirrel and Duck: Mission Improbable' * Hilarious, off-the-wall and great fun -- Natasha Harding * Sun on 'Squirrel and Duck: Mission Improbable' *

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Tom Percival is a writer, artist, video producer and musician. He grew up in the rural south-west and now lives in Gloucestershire. His series of picture books exploring the emotions, Big Bright Feelings, is widely loved, with Ruby's Worry and World Book Day book Billy's Bravery being the bestselling titles. In Squirrel and Duck, his new young fiction series, his anarchic sense of humour and his brilliantly expressive and funny black-and-white drawings will entertain an older audience.
