Wilma Tenderfoot and the Case of the Putrid Poison

by Emma Kennedy (Author), Sylvain Marc (Illustrator)

Synopsis

A cunning disguise. Some stinky seaweed. And a dastardly villain on the loose ...sounds like another case for Wilma Tenderfoot! Wilma Tenderfoot, the feisty and determined assistant to the greatest living detective, Theodore P. Goodman, is faced with a peculiar, and pongy, case to crack. Cooper Island's vaudeville theatre becomes centre stage for a murderous menace, as one by one the actors are fatally poisoned. Can Wilma, along with her faithful hound and dazzling dancing partner, Pickle, discover the fiend's identity ...before the final curtain falls for Wilma herself?

Author Bio
Emma Kennedy studied English at Oxford, but it was there that she fell into Comedy - writing and performing in university sketches and taking a disastrous show to the Edinburgh Fringe. Emma then started work in television, appearing on programmes such as The Big Squeeze with Mel & Sue and Loose Women, and writing for things like Late Lunch, and Radio 4 and 5. Her awards are too numerous to count (the Comedy Lounge Best Actress Award; Sony Awards for her Radio writing), and she's been in an Utterly Butterly advert. Since then her writing and acting highlights have been: My Family, Big Brother's Little Brother, Goodness Gracious Me, Tracy Beaker and Katy Brand's Big Ass Show. Emma's hilarious holiday memoir (for adults), The Tent the Bucket and Me was published with great success. Emma's extensive comedy training, however, has all been building to this pinnacle -- the writing of children's books!
