What is going on at Izzy’s school? Mr Graves their headmaster is behaving very strangely indeed and there are strange noises coming from the basement. That’s all it takes to put Izzy and her friends in full investigator mode, ready to face whatever is hiding in the school, no matter how beastly.
Born leader Jodi is not happy when annoying Gary Petrie pushes his way into their gang, but his cat Cheese and Onion turns out to be a real asset!
As ever in this hugely popular series, the story is laugh-out-loud funny and perfectly pitched for primary school readers. Packed with illustrations by Thomas Flintham, these are perfect chapter books and Pamela Butchart’s imaginative powers and the joy she generates in these stories shows no sign of dimming.
Another hilarious tale of primary school life where nothing is as it seems and the drama is always off the scale.
Chaos and mayhem reign as Izzy and her friends take on another hilarious (mis)adventure. There's no such thing as an ordinary day at school when they're around.
Izzy and her friends overhear their head teacher talking about missing treasure and running out of time. They know this means there's TREASURE buried in the school somewhere and that Mr Graves wants it all for himself. So Jodi says they've got to find it first, and they should start by searching the staffroom. After seeing things they will never forget, they head to the basement. Gary Petrie's dad is working down there and he's seen something SHINY! So they send Zach's cat down with a camera strapped to her head and study the footage carefully. What they see is SHOCKING and CHANGES EVERYTHING. It's not treasure in the basement, it's a BEAST with SHINING EYES and it's coming to get them! RUN!!!
Pamela Butchart was lucky enough to grow up in a house full of pets and go to a primary school where lots of spooky and weird things happened (well, in her imagination at least). As a student, Pamela’s jobs included: fishwife, teaching basketball in America, phlebotomist and Artist Liaison for a (really bad) Abba tribute band. Now, when she’s not writing or going out and about meeting readers, Pamela teaches philosophy to teenagers. She lives in Dundee with two cats called Bear and Carlos and her son Albie.
Her books have won the Blue Peter Book Award (for The Spy Who Loved School Dinners illustrated by Thomas Flintham), the FCBG Children’s Book Award and been shortlisted for the Lollies.
