Odelia and the Varmint
AUTHOR : Jenny MooreILLUSTRATOR : Elisa Paganelli‘What if I don’t want to go back to a life of storms and soggy sea biscuits?’ saidCaptain Blunderfuss. ‘What if I’d rather stay here and search for
treasure instead?’
When a pair of unruly fictional pirates escape out of their book into Victorian
London, 11-year-old Odelia Hardluck-Smythe’s lonely life is turned upside
down. Captain Blunderfuss and Cook are rude, dangerous and obsessed with
marzipan fruits, but they could be the answer to all her prayers. Pirates mean
treasure and poor, fatherless Odelia could really do with some of that.
Unfortunately, there’s more to ‘treasure’ than buried chests of rubies and
diamonds, as Odelia’s about to discover the hard way.
A fast-paced, rip-roaring Victorian adventure with twists and turns galore!AGE : 8+ yearsRELEASE DATE : 1st November 2022
