'So funny... I LOVE IT!' Alex Milway, bestselling
author of Hotel Flamingo
A laugh-out-loud, brilliantly wacky, highly illustrated
children's debut for readers of 8+ from an award-winning comedy
writer - a perfect longer read for fans of Pamela Butchart and
Grimwood, illustrated by Jeff Crowther.
Maggie McKay is NOT happy that her mum has decided to move to
Knobbly Bottom (the most BORING village ever invented). Knobbly Bottom
has got NO soft play centres, NO toy shops and NO horse that
her mum had (sort of) promised her. There are just fields, church
fetes, and a bunch of boring old sheep!
But Maggie soon discovers that Knobbly Bottom is also
full of SECRETS. The sheep are growing FANGS, their eyes
are turning RED, and they're planning to take over the world...
When Mum thinks she's just making up another silly story, it's
up to Maggie, her little sister Lily and their new friend Fred -
with the help of a strange old lady called Nan Helsing and some
stinky garlic bread - to save Knobbly Bottom from the ATTACK OF THE
VAMPIRE SHEEP!
Shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize 2024
Genuinely laugh-out-loud jokes and puns on every page to delight
kids and grown-ups alike, with an instantly relatable cast of
family and friends

characters!
