Another deliciously squirmy story about Harry the Poisonous Centipede.

Harry and George are captured by the dreaded Hoo-Mins. How on earth can they escape from their hard-air prisons? Glass jars are too hard to climb, and the holes in the top are too small. But when the Not-So-Big-Hoo-Mins mother accidentally knocks over the jars containing a scorpion and a tarantula, all hell breaks loose and the intrepid chums make a bid for freedom. This, as you can imagine, is just the start of a Very Big Adventure indeed!

Review:

Praise for Harry the Poisonous Centipede

“A real ground level story that rockets along on hundreds of legs...Bug fans will love this.”
Kidstuff School Books RTE Guide

About the Author:

Since Lynne’s first novel for adults, The L-Shaped Room, she has been published here and in the US. Her strong narrative style and ability to create worlds where small people and animals live, is second to none. Her book, The Indian in the Cupboard, shortly to be a Collins Modern Classic, was made into a major feature film – her books in the series sell and sell. Lynne says writing for children comes more easily than writing for adults. “It’s not that it is less demanding – I just find it more fun.”
