Betty Steady and the Fidgety Wizard (Paperback or Softback)

KNICK-KNACK, PADDY WHACK, BETTY’S BACK!

When the twin princesses fall under a dreadful spell, little Betty and her gang must find the cure ― oh, and stop a wicked wizard from building a theme park on the island of Little Dollop. Iced bun, JOB DONE!

For readers of You’re A Bad Man, Mr Gum and Grimwood!

The princesses of Wobbly Rock, Pam and Pamm, have swooned into a coma, thanks to a bunch of poisonous daffodils inadvertently given to them by Betty’s swashbuckling, moustachioed 11-year-old cousin, Freddy Steady. Now the gang must go in search of wicked weasels on the island of Little Dollop to find the cure. But naughty sorcerer Hearty Stu has plans of his own for the princesses. And our noble stallion Simon Anderson has plans for Freddy Steady’s SUPER annoying green unicorn Salad whom he doesn’t like even a tiny little bit no sir nuh-uh.

DOCTOR FOSTER WENT TO GLOUCESTER!

"OMIGOSH! Nicky Smith-Dale and Sarah Horne pulled off the hat-trick! THRICE as joyously barmy and TRIPLE as nail-biting as before! A riotous ride of bonkers that’ll have you snorting with laughter from the very first page.” Ramzee, author of The Cheat Book

As a child Nicky always had her head in the clouds. Later she pursued a career as a primary school teacher, greatly enjoying encouraging a new generation of creative minds. Sadly, she firmly believed there was no place for her own bonkers stories in an adult world. Then she realised she didn’t have to write for adults after all! Now Nicky enjoys writing funny children’s books from her home in Winchester, where she lives with her husband and two children.
