Captain Midnight and the Granny Bag

Four hilarious stories about wicked villains written by best-selling children's author Andrew Matthews. Larger-than-life characters, knockabout humour and strong plots in which the villains' plans are foiled will make these books surefire winners with readers building confidence. Super spies, triple-agents, kidnapping and romance abound in this thrilling tale of international espionage. The country of Sombrero has been at war with neighbouring Fedora for many years. King Dennis wants to sign a peace treaty with King Otto of Fedora which in turn will end the need for spies and hence put Miskin Snythely out of a job. He must do something to stop the war ending but the mission he has been given doesn't quite get accomplished...ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Andrew Matthews lively, funny books are tremendously popular with children, and Dr Monsoon Taggert's Amazing Finishing Academy was shortlisted for the Smarties Award in 1989.
