Description

Beautifully written by Carnegie and Costa Award-winning author Sally Gardner, illustrated throughout with stunning illustrations from Greenaway-shortlisted artist Chris Mould, and filled with heart, humour and imagination, What To Do, Pernickety Boo is the magical sequel to Pernickety Boo – the story of a very unusual umbrella

Sometimes in life, you have to believe in the impossible – especially when the impossible is Pernickety Boo.

Pernickety Boo, the well-educated umbrella with unexplored magical powers, is very happy in his new life at 3 Rose Terrace with his beloved owner, Sylvie Moonshine, and best friend Jimjam the cat – even if the occasional mishap does some times occur.

And when a diamond tiara stolen from a princess suddenly comes into Pernickety's possession, he embarks on an exciting new time-travelling adventure in order to clear his name and reunite the tiara with its proper owner.

From multi-award-winning author Sally Gardner, beautifully illustrated throughout by acclaimed artist Chris Mould, and perfect for fans of A Bear Called Paddington, Winnie-the-Pooh, and Mary Poppins, What to Do, Pernickety Boo? is the extraordinary sequel to the instant modern classic, Pernickety Boo – a magical book for the whole family to share.
