King Keith and the Nasty Case of Dragonitus (Young Puffin Books)

<p>Meet Pongwiffy!<br />
Eureka! Pongwiffy has just conjured an amazing spell, a wall of smell to protect her hovel in a dump site. It's so disgusting that nobody can get near it without her secret magic formula. Now she's ready to organize the best-ever Halloween Bonfire party, featuring a fancy dress parade. Pongwiffy has even persuaded her sometime best friend, Sharkadder, to be a judge. Everything's coming up stinkweed -- until her Broomstick goes missing, then shows up white as a sheet, and practically splinters at the whisper of "Goblin!"<br />
Pongwiffy's desperate. What have the Goblins done to Broomstick? Is it contagious? And who's this down-on-his-luck genie lurking around her precious dump? Clearly he's up to no good. It's curtains in the coven for Pongwiffy unless she can pull off a slam-bang parade and outwit the evildoers before everything goes to heck!</p>

Pongwiffy and the Goblins' Revenge

Puffin

Pongwiffy finds an old magic spell when she is forced to spring clean her hovel. But old-fashioned ingredients and a vulture's feather and a cat's whisker are hard to come by, especially when they belong to the familiars of other witches. Another tale of Pongwiffy - the witch of dirty habits.

The Silver Spoon of Solomon Snow

A comic story set in mock-Victorian times. Solomon Snow discovers, to his amazement, that he is a foundling. A silver spoon was left with him as a baby, but Pa has pawned it. Solomon leaves home in high dudgeon to seek his spoon and his real parents. He joins up with Prudence Pridy, a very bossy girl, and a very irritating child called the Infant Prodigy, who can wind any adult round her little finger. Together they reach Town and promptly meet a glorious cast of assorted larger-than-life characters including a villainous pawnbroker, kidnappers, a child farmer, an awful orphanage and a cheery chimney-sweep's boy. Solly does find his spoon eventually - but the ending takes everyone by surprise.

Literature & Fiction

Solomon Snow and his friends, Prudence and the Infant Prodigy, return in a second comic mock-Victorian extravaganza. This time, Prudence's dad is in prison, awaiting transportation to a rotting convict ship. Our heroes set out to rescue him and get caught up in the mad plans of the villainous Dr Calamari to steal a fabulous ruby (cursed, of course) in this wildly funny and rumbustious romp, involving dwarfs, thugs, donkeys, the circus - and a starring role for Mr Skippy, the rabbit.
