Marmaduke the Very Different Dragon
Illustrated by Ed Eaves


Marmaduke's not like all the other dragons - his ears are too big and he never even tries to fly. He just doesn't fit in, however much he wants to, and so he feels terribly lonely.

And Princess Meg? Well, she wears trainers and breaks into dance at the most inappropriate of times, which means that she sticks out like a sore thumb. She doesn't really have any friends, but then she's far too busy having fun to notice . . . Until one day when Marmaduke and Meg's lives collide in the most exciting, brilliant and surprising way and they both realise just how much they need each other.

And, who knows, maybe a princess and a dragon will make the most perfect best friends.

Marmaduke the Very 
Popular Dragon
Illustrated by Ed Eaves


Marmaduke and Meg are best friends. They live in a kingdom where everyone else does what's expected of them... but Marmaduke and Meg are different, and being different together is what they love doing most.

As word of Marmaduke and Meg spreads across the kingdom, things slowly start to change - everyone wants to make friends with them, to be different with them. And before long Marmaduke and Meg are... popular. Perhaps too popular.... because Marmaduke doesn't seem to have time for Meg. And Meg starts to feel left out. Will she have the courage to tell Marmaduke? And will he listen?

A story about friendship, fights and finding the person we really want to be.

Audrey the Amazing Inventor
Illustrated by Katie Weymouth

Hilarious, heartfelt and utterly bonkers, Audrey the Inventor is a new heroine with plenty to say and do!
