Ghost and the Shutterbug
For
six years Arnold Taylor has haunted the house in Wattle Street

a child out of her wits — and out of his house? However,

Piggotts in Peril
More
lies in store for poor Bert Piggott as he endeavours to deal with
his mad family and their impact on the wider world.
Piggotts
in Peril, the sequel to the bestselling Piggott Place,
begins with the shy and sensitive Bert Piggott accidentally finding
the map to pirate treasure hidden many years ago by his great-great-great-great-grandfather.
At first a quest for untold wealth seems the answer to all his problems,
but getting it means bringing along his scheming, ratbag family.
Little does he know that what lies ahead are problems that even
the pessimistic Bert could never imagine: the terror of turbulent
seas aboard a 'borrowed' boat, capture by pirates, being marooned
on the Isle of the Dead, and more.
Add
to this mix the antics of his best friend (the child actress) Antigone
Attwood and Bert's feeling of hopelessness soon turns to utter despair.
Piggotts
in Peril is a warm, adventure comedy about the origins of the
universe, the evolution of humankind — and pirate treasure.
