David Roberts was born in Liverpool. He always loved drawing from an early age and couldn't wait to escape high school and go to art college. There he developed a keen interest in pottery and fashion and went on to study a degree in fashion design at Manchester Metropolitan University. After university he worked as a milliner and began to get work as a fashion illustrator, but always felt his true calling was in children's book illustration.
Joe Barrett brings to life this Second Unlikely Exploit of the McNally siblings. Barrett's even pacing easily carries the listener along as the McNally children attempt to recover Fergal McNally's pickled brain. Tension builds in Barrett's voice as the children venture into the forbidden Fishbone Forest, encountering several eccentric characters. But don't dismay, Barrett brings a smile to the listen with the humor and new vocabulary sprinkled throughout the story. The plot device of the split story is abrupt in audio but is smoothed as much as possible by Barrett's tone and natural pauses. Even Barrett's unidentifiable accent helps convey the odd happenings in the unidentified country of the McNally children.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Book Two in Philip Ardagh's darkly hilarious new trilogy, Unlikely Exploits, charting the extraordinary change in fortunes of the downtrodden McNally family. The setting is an unidentified country suffering from an unexpected outbreak of very large holes. In Book One we saw the unfortunate young Fergal's demise, and Le Fay's triumph in the Tap 'n' Type typing competition. In this second unlikely exploit, full of surprising twists and turns, the remaining McNally children - Jackie, Le Fay and the twins Josh and Albie - are mysteriously drawn to Fishbone Forest and the forgotten crumbling mansion which lies at its heart. Here they meet the terrifying teddy-bear-clutching Mr Maggs who is planning to make sweeping changes to the world.which is all rather unlikely, isn't it? Packed with humour, excitement and sadness, this is another sure-fire winner. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR010249781
