The Caravan at the Edge of Doom

The perfect summer read for fans of Terry Pratchett, David Walliams and Roald Dahl!

When her four grandparents queue up to explode in their caravan toilet late one night, twelve-year-old Harley discovers a surprising truth: their toilet is a gateway to the Land of the Dead, and they are its Guardians. Well, they were. But there’s no time to mourn their passing. Because Harley’s baby brother has accidentally gone with them, hidden in his grandma’s wheelie bag. And Harley only has 24 hours to rescue him before he’s trapped in the Land of the Dead for all eternity…

This hilarious and heartbreaking debut features exploding grandparents, unexpected heroes and one truly EPIC adventure.
