Books with author Geoffrey Bilson

Sam’s mum and dad are going on holiday for a year— and he’s not invited! Sam is being packed off to his aunt and uncle’s to stay on an island that doesn’t want to stay on itself! Sam’s beach for the year isn’t in the sunshine but it may be far more exciting. Stranded on the shore is a ship with a mysterious cargo and without an attendant captain.Sam can’t wait to get to the bottom of it all but before he does he’ll have to contend with the trying Miss Tree, a house overflowing with birdcages, a boring former headmaster (never!), a fledgeling criminal enterprise and the inscrutable Mr Toppo. Not to mention all the other natives of the curious colony of Long Island!
