Winner of the Week Junior Book Awards 2023 - Children’s Book Cover of the Year
Some legends are born, some are drawn . . . Famous works of art are disappearing from all over the world. One moment they are there, the next, they have crumbled to dust. Peanut Jones and her friends suspect it might have something to do with the magical world of Chroma and the wicked Mr White's plot to wipe out colour, art and creativity. It's time to head back to the Illustrated City and help the resistance fight back.
Packed with art references and rich in STEM details, Peanut Jones demonstrates that creative thinking is not just confined to art.
TWJ judges said : "An highly imaginative, colourful and a gobsmacking 'in-your-face' cover that grabs your attention immediately."
