Description
Stories to Eat with a Blood Plum is another lighthearted (but scary) bundle of stories about Prudence and her best friend, the Phaery Ethereal - Phredde for short. Phredde, Prue and families have had lots of adventures in Stories to Eat With a Banana and Stories to Eat With a Watermelon. there's a grey fleshed zombie librarian tending her blood-starved books in the school library. there's a 5,000 year old Egyptian Mummy roaming the corridors ... not to mention giant slugs, the Snot Phaerie, piranhas, a few werewolves and Dad's pet giant sloth. Can Phredde and Prudence escape these ghastly torments? Well, of course they can ... But HOW do they escape? that's the question! PS...this is a BIG book, so there's lots of laughs for your money! the perfect stories for those times when you're brain dead and just want to blob out! Ages 8+
