Possums2U

by Vince Ford

Connor's cousin is making big money trapping live possums but he needs more of the furry tree-munchers. So Davin and the gang set up a possum-trapping base at Camp Isolation. Unfortunately, a poisoning programme, a rogue storm, rising rivers and a possum-hugging greenie threaten to sink the business.

And what are Oil and Scuz up to in the bush across the river?


This very funny book features more wacky dramas from the kids we first met in the award-winning 2much4u and somuch2do.

About the author

Born in Eltham, Taranaki, New Zealand - 1970. Vince Ford started his published career by winning the 1998 Tom Fitzgibbon Award for a previously unpublished writer, with 2MUCH4U, which went on to win the 2000 NZ Post Children's Book Award for Junior Fiction and an honour award for a first-time author. This initial success has been followed by the publication of 2 sequel titles to 2MUCH4U, plus a title in the SPORTMAX series of sport-focused stories for the 11-13 year interest level, and more recently with A Handful of Blue - a more dramatic story centered around a small community and a whale stranding, published in 2003. He is now working on a very different project - a trilogy of stories looking at the development of the man as hunter - Chronicles of Stone.
