The further illustrated adventures of Ted and Nancy, the fox siblings doing their best to settle into their new woodland home, do not disappoint. We meet lots of brand new (and totally bonkers) characters, including a squirrel called Ginger Fiasco, and a stoat called Susan Kidneys, and many of our favourites (hello, Sharon the party crow) make a welcome return. Honestly, this book is so funny it should come with a health warning. ~ Rob Biddulph, Guest Editor September 2022

Ted and Nancy love their new life in Grimwood - the forest where anything can happen.

'Ted and Nancy are my favourite funny foxes EVER. -- Liz Pichon
'I CACKLED ALOUD on practically every page. Comic gold, tinged with such tenderness.' -- Kiran Millwood Hargrave
'Grimwood is like Winnie-the-Pooh written by the Pythons, and so madly inventive and funny I was howling with laughter by the third page. This is about to become a fundamental part of 21st century childhood.' -- Caitlin Moran
