We flew in an airplane, Mum, Boo and me, To a fancy hotel overlooking the sea. We stuffed a big suitcase right up to the brim, With flip flops and snorkels and goggles squeezed in.
Flip flops, snorkels and goggles aren't the only things that one little girl has brought with her on her summer holiday . . . There's also something with big white, jagged teeth that is sure to make this trip even more memorable! What COULD it be? Find out what happens in this wildly hilarious picture book by much-loved author Michelle Harrison and bestselling illustrator David Tazzyman.
My first children's novel, THE 13 TREASURES, won the Waterstone's Children's Book Prize. THE OTHER ALICE won the Calderdale Book of the Year Award. A PINCH OF MAGIC won a Dutch Bronze Pen Award. My books have been translated and sold in 25 territories worldwide.
Before becoming a full-time writer I worked in publishing as an editor, and before that, as a bookseller. Prior to that, I worked in bars, a bakery, and a second-hand record shop to make ends meet while trying to get my first book deal. I live in Essex and have a son, Jack, and two cats, Widdershins and Lucky.
My next children's novel is A CLOCK STRIKES MURDER, a sequel to TWICE UPON A TIME, publishing in March 2026 in the UK. My debut novel for adults is TWO LITTLE LIARS, a thriller partially set in the 1990s. It publishes in June 2026.
A superdelightful picture book about sand in your pants (and how dangerous that can be), gorgeous coral reef, pirates (going down a slide), family, the beach, and much more. Oh, and a shark hungry?? or just in need of a friend?? It made me laugh so many times and I loved every moment.
