The world of Boobela and Worm is one of special magic - the kind that comes from the heart and head, not from spellbooks. But it's also rooted in the every day experiences that make growing up so challenging and memorable. Their fourth book of stories sees them sharpen their wits as they turn detective to rumble a dognapper, as well as exploring each other's deepest thoughts as they unravel the dreams that trouble them. But there's laughter and play and the chance - as always - to make new friends and explore the physical world around them - from the city to the swamp and the weirdly wonderful island where Boobela's Gran and Granpa live.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
