Perfect for fans of The Wild Robot, Gus Gordon’s graphic novel debut follows two furry friends on a clever and cozy adventure when they embark on a journey to the Big City for the first time.In the Bewilderness, life is good.Best friends Luis (the large furry one) and Pablo (the small furry one) spend their days wandering through nature, playing songs on the guitar, and eating Slow Joe McNally’s pinecone porridge with their neighbors. When dreamer Luis receives an unexpected invitation to attend a performance of The Weary Mermaid in the big, bustling city, he finds it hard to ignore the allure of the bright lights. Luckily, he doesn’t have to go it alone—and it’s a good thing, because it’s a long journey through the Bewilderness, and Luis has many questions. Will they meet laser-eyed gargoyles, zombie chickens, or tyrannical cow rulers? Will they get there on time? Why is quicksand so slow if it’s called quicksand? Thankfully, with his grumpy but loyal best friend by his side, they’ll soon find out.. . . Or will they?

A very funny Tom Weekly story from the slightly warped brains of the author and illustrator of My Life and Other Stuff I Made Up. Think your grandpa''s angry? Think again. I''m Tom Weekly and my Pop is the angriest grandpa in Australia. The world, maybe. He hates nurses, harmless marine mammals and kids. Especially kids. Problem is, I have to interview him for school. And I’ve caught him on a bad day. A real bad day. Believe me, you do not want to hear what my grandfather has to say. But if you must, then download this short story. What reviewers said about the first Tom Weekly book, My Life and Other Stuff I Made Up: ''A sort of Aussie tall-tale version of Jeff Kinney’s Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Bancks’ latest features stories with a high-level gross-out factor.'' Booklist ''Are you ready to laugh? Yes? Good. Because you won''t be able to help yourself once you open this cover … Boys will love this book. Fans of Griffiths, Gleitzman and Jennings will be thrilled to have this book in their collection.'' www.kids-bookreview.com
