Laugh your head off in this second adventure in the bestselling, highly acclaimed Grimwood series.  Your favourite fox cub siblings Ted and Nancy are back with an all-new wildly funny story that will have children (and their grown-ups) begging for more. Perfect for readers age 7+, and fans of Dog Man, Roald Dahl, David Walliams, Loki, Bunny vs Monkey and anyone who likes to laugh. Ted and Nancy love their new life in Grimwood – the forest where anything can happen. But the dastardly mayor of neighbouring town Twinklenuts is on a mission to take over Grimwood and kick everyone out. Ted and Nancy must muster up bags of courage, rally their friends, and show off their treebonking skills to save the home they’ve grown to love. Fully illustrated throughout and full of heart, laughs and surprises, this is the must-read second title in the bestselling and fantastically funny Grimwood series.

She’s also been shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and the Waterstones Children's Book Prize, and has been Writer-Illustrator in Residence for BookTrust. Grimwood is her first series for older readers.

The second book in the fantastic 'Grimwood' series. Fox cub siblings Ted and Nancy (who are inhabitants of Grimwood) discover a new and exciting land right next to Grimwood, which appears to offer the best food, drinks and entertainment you can possibly get. But is this new land all it seems? Find out in this hilarious adventure!

This book was so good, i ended up reading it in 2-3 days! My favourite part of the book was when Nancy decided to try find her parents with Ted. It felt like such a heart-warming moment.
