Peanut Jones and the Illustrated City: from the creator of Draw with Rob by Rob Biddulph
Harold and the Purple Crayon meets The Train to Impossible Places for boys and girls of 8+, this dazzling adventure fizzes with magic, danger, friendship and art. It's funny too . . .Goodness me, THIS BOOK. Rob Biddulph has only gone & done it again. Committed the ultimate crime of being FAR TOO AWESOME. I mean, look at this utter beauty?! Those illustrations. This book is EPIC -- Laura Ellen Anderson
A wildly imaginative, big-hearted celebration of creativity -- Anna James, bestselling author of the Pages & Co series
A masterful mix of art, heart and edge-of-your-seat adventure. I love Peanut Jones! -- Sibeal Pounder
Fresh and original, it's full of Biddulph's characteristic warmth and, of course, his striking illustrations. -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
This is a beautiful book, the images on the page and the magnificent imagery created by the words exist in perfect harmony, each helping the other to tell the story of Peanut's emotions and journey. There is a real joy in this book, one of finding strength and friendships along with the sting of real life and the pain of losing a parent. Like Rob Biddulph says, 'Some legends are born, others are drawn…' and Peanut Jones and her plight are most definitely that of a legend. * ReadingZone *
