This series started when I was painting little pictures of my model ship collection, and thought the pictures looked better when I added mouse sailors. Eventually I asked my friend Philip Reeve if he would work with me to turn these little Adventuremice into a series, and now we have so much fun together imagining what these brave little mice will get up to! You can read them in the order we made them, but you don't need to; each book will work just fine as a stand-alone story. Published by David Fickling Books, they're the perfect bridge from picture books to longer books with chapters, and you'll never open the pages without spotting a hand-painted watercolour illustration. You can even buy original illustrations in the online shop at Adventuremice.com! There you'll also find lots of fun, free drawing activities and resources.

Meet Kevin, a pony who blows into town from the Outermost West one night during a fierce storm. He adores biscuits - especially custard creams - and Max and Daisy, who go on exciting adventures with him. Click on each cover to find out about each book and discover lots of activities to go along with them! Philip Reeve and I created these fun four books with Oxford University Press.

Join Philip Reeve and me for our first four exciting books, full of humour, odd adventure and weird and wonderful creatures. Meet the Rambling Isles with Oliver and Iris the mermaid. Join Astra on a 200-year-long space voyage that goes wrong, and may include sentient cakes. Explore Funfair Moon and meet its clever engineer apprentice Emily, battling a bureaucrat who wants to turn the planet into the greyest of office worlds. And take heart from the courage of 66 pugs, who race with Shen and Sika toward the North Pole through an icy landscape in a magical winter. Published by Oxford University Press.

Meet Grumpycorn! He's a unicorn with ambition who wants to write the most fabulous story in the world, and then visit the most fabulous planet in the world. His friends admire his courage and dedication, but he has to learn how to be a better friend to them and stop throwing such wild diva strops. And meet the inhabitants of Dinoville! What happens when a clumsy T-Rex goes on the rampage in a pizza factory? Or a massive diplodocus decides she wants to be an agile firefighter?
