Florentine and Pig and the Spooky Forest Adventure

Description

Welcome to the magical world of Florentine and Pig! Join them on their adventures as they discover the glorious world of friendship, fun and food. There's a monster on the loose, and Florentine and Pig are determined to catch it! But what will they need for their monster- catching expedition? Binoculars? Check! Torch? Check! Super-scrummy supper? CHECK! (Well, monster catching IS rather hard work) But is there REALLY a monster out there, or are Florentine and Pig's imaginations playing tricks on them?

Florentine and Pig is the brainchild of singer-songwriter Eva Katzler. Working with children of all ages in summer camps, Eva quickly became aware that kids had forgotten - or had never known - the simple pleasures of getting a little messy with their hands. She devised the delightful partnership of Florentine and Pig as a way of encouraging children (and adults!) to rediscover the joys of making things together. Jess Mikhail graduated from Loughborough University in 2002 and has illustrated books for well-known authors such as Giles Andreae's I Love You, Little Monster (Orchard) and Jeanne Willis' Sid Did It! (Rigby). Jess loves to draw and create funny characters that make people smile. She works in mixed media by scanning fabrics, scribbling, blobbing, mono-printing and photographing.
