Product Information

A Bigfoot is on the loose! Ted, Nancy, Willow and the rest of the Grimwood gang must embark on their greatest adventure yet to save their home from a nasty, thieving stink monster. Monster hunters are GO! Grimwood is a forest far, far, faaaaar away. It’s full of trees and sky and mud and stones. It smells weird and there’s loads of litter and old shopping trolleys. But it’s also FUN and GREAT and it’s where scruffy fox cub siblings from the Big City, Ted and Nancy, have made their home with their crazy new gang of woodland friends. Dort leben viele skurrile und schräge Gestalten von Tieren, wie baumboinkende Eichhörnchen, ein Hirsch-Bürgermeister, jeepfahrende Dachse und schauspielernde Enten. Es wird also allerhand geboten und die Geschwister werden liebevoll aufgenommen und versorgt.

When two young foxes who have no parents around are just going about their daily lives, they could never guess at just how much trouble could come from biting down on what appeared to be a hot dog. Ultimately this book sees the two foxes move from their inner city life and head to the forests of Grimwood with no idea on what exactly to expect as they are simply given a map and told to head there following the hot dog incident. In Grimwood there are numerous animal friends and foes to be met and it is a great adventure for the foxes themselves but also for the reader too. This was a little bit 'different'. We've loved Shireen's picture books (all of them) and saw her name on this and wanted to try a book for the older ages. An easy read funny book for mid primary aged students. Ted and Nancy a fox cub siblings tying to survive in the Big City with older sister Nancy the strong a fearsome protector, and Ted the quiet, nervous and cautious younger brother who desperately wants a friend but is too scared to go out and find one. Fully illustrated throughout and full of heart, laughs and surprises, this is the must-read third title in the bestselling and fantastically funny Grimwood series. Ted und Nancy sind im Großen Park in der Großen Stadt aufgewachsen und schlagen sich auch ohne Eltern ganz gut.Skurrile, tierische Charaktere purzeln in ein kurioses Abenteuer. Vervollständigt durch sw Comic-Illustrationen.

It doesn't really matter what the plot is, though the foxes are trying to keep out of the cat's way and must use any new friends they have to help them. The point is that it's a funny trip into an animal world of quirky silliness, with the narrator taking great pleasure in all the voices.Auf jeder Doppelseite findet sich eine schwarz-weiß Illustration (mal klein, mal halb- und sogar ganzseitig). Nadia Shireen has won awards for her picture books including the UKLA Book Award for Good Little Wolf, and her latest, Barbara Throws a Wobbler, has been described as a ‘little doorway of joy’ by Caitlin Moran. She’s also been shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and the Waterstones Children's Book Prize, and has been Writer-Illustrator in Residence for BookTrust. Grimwood is her first series for older readers. Nancy is the tough one, and fiercely protective of her little brother Ted, who is a rather gentle soul. Yet, when Ted accidentally bites scary cat Princess Buttons’ tail off, the two foxes need somewhere to lie low. What better place than Grimwood, a faraway forest whose furry denizens play endless games of Treebonk, and tough talking bunnies frisk under shady trees?
