Eddy Stone and the Epic Holiday Adventure by Simon Cherry
When Eddy Stone finds a pirate in his Gran's bath, his miserable summer holiday turns into a treasure hunt. Setting sail in a ship-shaped shed, crewed by an old lady and a grumpy penguin, what could possibly stop them? All aboard for an EPIC adventure... 'Wonderfully told adventures' Stephen Fry 'Charming, surreal and batty' Lenny Henry
A cracking pirate adventure!.. High-octane, hilarious tale of a bored schoolboy and his madcap pirate pal, packed with brilliant jokes, knockabout action and plenty of potty pirates... the best new adventure series on the high seas this year! * Lancashire Evening Post *
Eddy Stone and the Epic Holiday Mash-Up is an epic story indeed, and possibly the most inventive piratical comedy-fantasy-adventure you’ll read this year... As quests go, it’s a cracker and very, very funny too. Polished and very original, this is Simon Cherry’s debut novel and hopefully the first of many. * LoveReading4Kids *
Charming, surreal and batty. * Lenny Henry *
Made me laugh out loud, more than a few times. Simon's an absolute master at setting up jokes (which is harder than making people cry), and Francis's whimsical illustrations keep the story burbling along on a fantastically silly pirate adventure. * Sarah McIntyre, Illustrator of Jinx & O'Hare Funfair Repair *
Bizarre and brilliant, the book is full of imagination and
sure to get kids plotting adventures to fill those magical summer days.
