Extraordinary Ernie & Marvellous Maud
Extraordinary Ernie & Marvellous Maud
What boy, girl or sheep wouldn’t jump at the chance to become a
superhero? Ernie Eggers and Maud the Sheep get just that opportunity in
this super new series.
Ernie Eggers is thrilled when he wins a superhero contest and becomes The Extraordinary Ernie (after school on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and all day Saturday.) But his excitement turns to dismay when he discovers that his sidekick is a sheep. It doesn't take him long to realise, though, that there has never been another sheep quite like Marvellous Maud. A new dynamic duo is born!
A new dynamic duo is born!
This fantastic new series is perfect for 7-10 year olds. Look out for
Book 2 in the series The Middle Sheep in September 2008.
Frances Watts:Fearless Frances Watts is the author of Kisses for
Daddy (an Honour Book in the Early Childhood category of the 2006
Children’s Book Council of Australia Book of the Year Awards) and
Parsely Rabbit’s Book about Books (shortlisted in the 2008 CBCA Book of
the Year Awards.) She also works as an editor, and as the servant of a
lazy cat. Frances likes travelling, cheese and ducks, and dislikes
ferocious dogs and having cold feet. Although her natural superpower has
no yet emerged, she did once rescue a horse from a fire.
Judy Watson:Jittery Judy Watson has been a chicken all her life.
She has illustrated several books for children, some of them quite
terrifying. Her most frightening project so far was drawing the fearsome
tiger for the Aussie Nibble Tim & Tig. Drawing the pictures for
Extraordinary Ernie & Marvellous Maud sometimes caused her hands to
tremble. This may explain many of the wobbles in her illustrations. By
the way, she is very impress that Fearless Frances has rescued a
horse!
