Eddy Stone and the Epic Holiday Mash-Up by Simon Cherry
When Eddy finds a pirate in his gran's bath, his miserable summer holiday becomes a treasure hunt! Setting sail in a ship-shaped shed, crewed by an old lady and a grumpy penguin, what could possibly stop their quest for booty? (Apart from the world's most evil shopkeeper, a man-eating beast, and the maddest, baddest villain in all the seven seas.)
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 *
Bizarre and brilliant, the book is full of imagination and sure to get kids plotting adventures to fill those magical summer days. * Anorak magazine *
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 *
