The Trouble with Gran

Babette Cole
(Picture Lions)
978-0006628736, RRP £4.50, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "The Trouble with Gran (Picture Lions)" on Amazon

Hurray! Another funny book by Babette Cole, this time about Gran - and she's an ALIEN! It's a real romp with lots of creepy crawly creatures supporting Gran as she behaves outrageously on the OAP outing (they 'don't suspect a thing!'). She ends up taking them all on a space journey in the bus shelter, getting back in time to feed the cat - and then start a travel agency in the garage! This is the latest in a line of funny, happy, exciting, unpredictable stories which are great fun for all ages.
