"Casper Candlewacks is the only boy with any sense in a village full of idiots… the fourth and final instalment in the hilarious Casper Candlewacks series.
Praise for Casper Candlewacks in Death by Pigeon:
“a funny and engaging debut” JEREMY STRONG
Most villages have an idiot but Casper's village is full of them. So being bright makes Casper something of an outsider.
Luckily Casper has Lamp to him company – his less-than-bright best mate who is also a strangely ingenious inventor.
Lamp’s latest invention is a time-travelling toaster – or so he says. But can a toaster really transport them through space and time or will they both just end up as toast?
The final tale in the hilarious Casper Candlewacks series. You’d have to be an idiot to miss it!"
"Grab your glow in the dark trousers, Casper’s back in this third ridiculously hilarious, hilarously ridiculous madcap adventure.
Most villages have an idiot but Casper's village is full of them. So being bright makes poor Casper something of an outsider.
A side-splittingly funny for girls and boys, featuring a massive food fight, an evil French chef and a machine that fires omelettes…"
"Jeremy Strong described Ivan's first Casper Candlewacks book as a 'funny and engaging debut'. This is the triumphant follow-up from the funniest new voice in fiction and once again unsung hero, Casper must save the day.
Most villages have an idiot but Casper's village is full of them. So being bright makes poor Casper something of an outsider.
An infamous cat burglar has struck in the village of Corne-on-the-Kobb, stealing a precious jewelled sword and kidnapping Casper’s baby sister. To make matters worse a gaggle of amateur detectives are on the case, questioning the villagers and getting in the way. Armed only with his wits, an egg-boiling lie-detecting machine and his best friend Lamp, can Casper rescue his sister and save the day?
A side-splittingly funny tale for girls and boys"

When famous magician the Great Tiramisu curses the village, Casper's father is blamed and sentenced to death by pigeon.
