The Bigwoof Conspiracy

"What I love about Bigwoof is how it combines horror and humour, which is obviously something that I really enjoy. Bigwoof I think is perfect for younger readers, 8-10 year olds, who like something a bit scary. It’s not going to terrify anybody so it’s a lovely way into creepier books without being anything too nightmarish. The main characters, Lucy and Milo, go along together in their funny little ways, investigating strange incidents that are going on in their town, Sticky Pines, which has a lot of secrets. Lucy likes investigating things, and in Sticky Pines there are a lot of things to investigate: UFOs, things disappearing, monsters, people acting very strangely, even people that Lucy knows and loves… It’s very clever how the biggest sequences are drawn out over the series, the overarching story of what’s happening in this town. But in each book, Lucy gets to solve a big case as well. The way it’s written is so engaging and fun, they are lovely reads. The third book, The Valley of the Strange , has just come out; it looks awesome."
