Hooey Higgins and the Shark

Hooey Higgins and the Shark

by Steve Voake (Author), Emma Dodson (Illustrator)

Synopsis

Like sharks? Like pants? Like to see a shark IN pants? Then Hooey Higgins is the series for you! Welcome to a land called Shrimpton-on-Sea where the folks are a bit unusual and you can make friends with Hooey, Twig, Will and Dingbat the dog. Are they naughty, slightly scruffy boys? Yes they are. Will they do anything for a few quid? Yes they will. What's so unusual about that, then? Well, it all starts with the giant chocolate egg, and then there's catching the shark in the flowery duvet cover and then Twig dresses up as a sea-urchin and gets chased through the knicker shop by Basbo the bully (boo, he's mean!) and then there's the big explosion and everything. But it all makes sense when you read it.

Author Bio
Steve Voake lives in Somerset. As well as the Hooey series, he has written five Daisy Dawson books for Walker. He is also the author of six novels for older readers, including The Dreamwalker's Child. Steve grew up in the countryside and used to be a naughty, slightly scruffy boy just like Hooey. He still dreams about making stuff explode and riding his bike off a pier into the sea, but fears he is too old to get away with it.
