'This is a GREAT book! Funny, charming, original, secretly educational.' Adam Kay 'Funny, arty and just a little bit naughty, the Art Avenger is amazing!' Matt Lucas 'Very funny . . . I learned tons about art and laughed A LOT' Joe Lycett A laugh-out-loud illustrated adventure featuring Trixie Pickle, the Banksy of her school. A weird sickness bug has been spreading through Wormwood Town and everyone is wondering if there's something in the water. Trixie Pickle Art Avenger uses the power of art to investigate - can she get to the bottom of the mystery around the town reservoir? She's got a lot on her plate - being bored to sleep by Money Week at school, making comics with her best friend Beeks and finding a way to bring down the local mean girls - but with artistic inspiration from Botticelli, Damien Hirst and Kehinde Wiley, the Art Avenger is sure to win the day. Highly illustrated throughout by Olaf and with fact files of hilarious and irreverent details about real artists such as Yayoi Kusama and Hokusai, Trixie Pickle is perfect for fans of Konnie Huq, Sam Copeland and Liz Pichon.

Olaf Falafel‘s self-illustrated funny novel sequel for readers aged 8+ is a genuinely hilarious affair that combines Trixie‘s love of art with her desire to get revenge on those who have wronged her. I particularly enjoyed the mini fact files on artists and how Trixie incorporates them in her pranks while her cynicism is very entertaining. I hadn‘t read the first book but will rectify that mistake and I hope there is more in this series.
