Grandma demands justice!*
*And also all the teacakes
A priceless artefact has been stolen in Russia - and Grandma Dangerous wants to find it. Nothing will stand in her way - not even some poisoned caviar, a prison break or a spot of contemporary dance. Can Ollie and Grandma return the treasure and get back home, before being caught by the politsiya? Or - worse - before Mum finds out?
Praise for Book 1: "Thrills! Biscuits! This book has it all" Andy Riley, author of KING FLASHYPANTS
Kita Mitchell
Kita Mitchell wrote and illustrated her first work, Cindersmella, at the age of six. It was cruelly and swiftly rejected by publishers. The sequels, Repunsmell and Mouldilocks, were equally badly received.
Disheartened, she turned her attention to making stuff, and, luckily, they did degrees in that. After getting one, she built sets for TV shows - but the feeling she should write funny books for children never went away.
Eventually, she decided to have another go. This time, things turned out a little better. Now, she can tell people she is a proper author, which is great.
Kita currently lives in Oxfordshire with four daughters and a hamster.
