Chronicles of a Child of Outstanding Pedigree

Meet Marigold Joplin-Jaffa. A girl with a thing for conspiracy, paganism and decapitation.



Follow the lunatic adventures of the enigmatic Marigold across London, adventures brought to life by her take-no-sh-t attitude and her rebellious worldview. Against a backdrop of some of the capital city’s most iconic landmarks, the red-haired Marigold puts the world to rights with her fearless precociousness. Her shenanigans, alongside a motley bunch of friends, take her up against bankers, celebrities and the supernatural; mad Irish aunties and dead German ones; iconic sport stars, princesses, penguins and Paul McCartney.



There was a time, they say, when children were seen and not heard. That time is gone. Some children are mouthy, some are smartarses… and then there is Marigold Joplin-Jaffa.
