“Bob soared through the air like a furry torpedo. His cape fluttered in the wind behind him and he felt supersonic!”

Terrie has loved being a #BookFairyForADay along the Thames in London!

The Book Fairies are sharing copies of the brand new children’s book Koalas in Capes: The Zombie Chickens by Terrie Chilvers! Finding a funny book, whether hidden by a book fairy or in a bookshop, is a great way to get children reading more during this National Year of Reading! Who was lucky enough to spot one today??

About the book:

Put on your super-suit and prepare for comic-book capers in Pawtonia, where the animals wear clothes, hot chocolate flows and evil is just an ostrich feather away.

Meet Bob and Archie. Two hapless, but enthusiastic, koalas who are just getting to grips with their superpowers when faced with their archenemy.

Enter Dr Colossus, an evil giant ostrich, who has grand plans to take over Pawtonia by releasing a hoard of zombie chickens loose in the city! Our fluffy duo needs everything it takes to stop Dr Colossus and his robber duck minions.

Can the Koalas in Capes master their powers in time to save the fate of Pawtonia?

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No. It’s Koalas in Capes! This side-splitting, superhero series is perfect for newly-independent readers, where chapter books meet graphic novels.
