Jack and the Flumflum Tree

David Roberts

Jack’s Granny is sick with a bad case of the moozles! The only cure is the fruit of the fantastic flumflum tree which grows on the faraway Isle of Blowyernose. It’s a perilous journey, but Jack bravely sets sail, with a motley crew of only three — and a large patchwork sack that Granny has filled with an odd assortment of items from chewing-gum to tent pegs. But what use will they be against hungry sharks, a leaky boat and a thieving monkey? This irresistible story from the author of THE GRUFFALO and the brilliant picture-book pairing behind TYRANNOSAURUS DRIP, THE TROLL and THE FLYING BATH is now available as a chunky board book, perfect for younger readers.

Julia Donaldson

Julia Donaldson, the 2011-13 Waterstones Children’s Laureate, is the outrageously talented, prize-winning author of the world’s most-loved picture books, most notably ROOM ON THE BROOM, WHAT THE LADYBIRD HEARD and THE GRUFFALO, which has sold over 5 million copies worldwide. Julia also writes fiction as well as poems, plays and songs — and her brilliant live children’s shows are always in demand. She and her husband Malcolm divide their time between Edinburgh and West Sussex. David Roberts is an award-winning illustrator with an international following. Born in Liverpool, he has a degree in fashion design, and has worked as a milliner and fashion illustrator. But he always felt his true calling was in children’s book illustration and now pursues that dream from his flat in London. David illustrates fiction, poetry, and picture books, and in 2006 won the Nestle Children’s Book Prize Gold Award for his line drawings in MOUSE NOSES ON TOAST (Faber & Faber).
