Inhaltsangabe

The thirteenth in a smash hit series of hilarious tales about primary school life from best-selling, award-winning creators! Packed with excellent black and white illustrations, this is the perfect longer read for newly confident readers.

Nothing is quite as it seems for Izzy and her friends, and the drama is always off the scale!

After overhearing their head teacher talking about "missing treasure" and "running out of time" which, of course, means there is treasure buried in the school that Mr Graves wants all for himself, Izzy and her friends resolve to find it first!

Izzy and her friends head to the basement where Gary Petrie's dad is working and he's seen something SHINY! So they send Zach's cat down with a camera strapped to her head and study the footage carefully... It's not actually treasure in the basement, it's a BEAST with SHINING EYES and it's coming to get them! RUN!!!

Praise for Izzy and friends:

"Butchart has enviable comic timing and a shrewd understanding of how primary-aged children think, speak and speculate. Punchy short chapters, genuinely laugh-out-loud humour and Flintham's zany pictures make the series an absolute must." - The Bookseller

"Good jokes and lots of fun, and especially good for reluctant readers." - Sunday Times

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Pamela lives in Dundee with her young son and their awesome cat, Bear. If she wasn't working as a writer and a teacher she'd like to open a luxury hotel for stray cats.

As a child, Pamela was lucky enough to grow up in a house full of pets and go to a primary school where lots of spooky and weird things happened (well, in her imagination at least). As a student, Pamela's student jobs included: fishwife, teaching basketball in America, phlebotomist and Artist Liaison for a (really bad) Abba tribute band.

Her top selling stories include The Spy Who Loved School Dinners which won the Blue Peter Best Story Award and My Head Teacher is a Vampire Rat which won The Children's Book Award. Two of her books, Petunia Perry and the Curse of the Ugly Pigeon and There's a Werewolf in My Tent, were shortlisted for the Lollies - the Laugh Out Loud Awards.

Thomas Flintham studied BA Fine Art at De Montfort University and in 2009 he graduated with a distinction in his Masters degree in Illustration at Camberwell College of the Arts, South London.

Thomas works digitally, drawing straight into his computer with his Wacom tablet, and in the old fashioned way on paper with brush and ink and drawing pens. He loves to draw and doodle. He has a very loose grip on reality, and enjoys disappearing into his own imagination in search of new characters, worlds and ideas to draw.

His work is influenced by his interest in all kinds of books, films, comics and Japanese video games. He loves Christmas and chocolate. He owns (almost) too many books.
