Don't Call Me Grumpycorn!

Unicorn, Narwhal, Mermaid and Jellyfish are ready for an adventure, and, as Unicorn quite rightly points out, nothing is more adventurous than travelling into SPACE.

But when the four friends disagree over which planet to visit first, Unicorn most definitely turns into a very grumpy Grumpycorn and decides to go off on his own.

About the author

Illustrator and writer Sarah McIntyre is easy to spot in her pointy glasses and hats. She's excited to launch the Adventuremice series of highly illustrated books for young readers with her co-author Philip Reeve. Together they've created award-winning books such as 'Oliver and the Seawigs' and 'Pugs of the Frozen North', and their more recent series about Kevin the Roly-Poly Flying Pony. Reeve & McIntyre think up stories together, then Reeve writes them (with help from Sarah) and Sarah illustrates them (with help from Philip). Sarah has also written and illustrated her own books, including the highly popular Grumpycorn picture books. Visit her website for lots of free book-related activities and inspiration for making your own drawings.
