    Jo Kemp

    eBook
    From the original writer of the late 1970's children’s cult TV series ‘Chorlton and the Wheelies’ and ‘Jamie and the Magic Torch’. These Boodle books were first published in the early 1980s and designed for 3 – 10 year olds.Containing the following titles.

Queenie the Quivering Quilt6. Terrence the Terrible TapCharming, funny and beautifully written Boodle Books are all about imagination. The notion of inanimate things coming to life is hardly original – which is precisely why the author gave it credence – because a child’s imagination has no bounds and there simply isn’t a child who hasn’t at some point taken a spoon or a daffodil and given it a name and a story.These delightful Boodle Books belong to children to help inspire adult imagination too.Based on these original stories, the new Hoo Ha House series runs to 26 titles covering every letter of the alphabet.

    Excerpt from Wild Dayrell: A Biography of a Gentlemen ExileI shall follow your example, said the young lieutenant, and, if the favourite wins, I have yet six months' leave, and, after the settling, shall carry on the war for that time; if, on the contrary, he is beaten, I shall join my regiment in India. To tell the truth, I am tired of the dep6t at Maidstone, and would just as soon be roughing it on the banks of the Sutlej as stay here without plenty of money to enjoy my leave and hunting in Northamptonshire.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
