A fee-fi-fo-festive treat for Supertato fans this Christmas - an unmissable adventure in this super bestselling series! As seen on TV!

All will be revealed...

About the Author

Sue HendraΒ studied illustration at Brighton University while also selling doughnuts from a kiosk at Chessington Zoo. Sue has now illustrated over 100 books for children. When Sue met Paul Linnet she found another person with the same silly sense of humor as her and they fell in love and started writing and illustrating together. Their creative brilliance soon led them to come up with a wealth of bestselling, award-winning picture books includingΒ Barry the Fish with Fingers,Β Norman the Slug with the Silly Shell,Β Supertato,Β and the Laugh Out Loud Book Award–winningΒ I Need a Wee!. Sue and Paul live in Brighton with their daughter Wanda who inspired Sue’s picture book and TV seriesΒ Wanda and the Alien. Paul LinnetΒ was born by the sea near to Brighton, but he grew up in Derby, where he studied graphic design and played guitar in a band called The Chihuahuas. Eventually Paul moved back to Brighton where he met Sue Hendra and they instantly fell in love. Their celebrated picture book partnership has created many bestselling, award-winning books includingΒ Barry the Fish with Fingers,Β Norman the Slug with the Silly Shell,Β Supertato,Β and most recently the Laugh Out Loud Book Award–winningΒ I Need a Wee. Sue and Paul live with their daughter Wanda in a house in Brighton where Paul likes to fuss about with an old motorbike and still plays the guitar.
