The Adventures of Squidape

Roland Bickering-Jones likes facts, lists, and things that make sense. Which is tricky, because ever since his mum died, nothing makes sense at all. His dad, Digby, runs a second-hand shop, and Roland loves to spend time with his favourite customers: a quirky group of elderly people known as The Collectors. When Roland spirals into magical thinking, trying to rationalise the loss of his mother by imagining she is on a secret mission, Digby takes him to Yumpy for a beachfront holiday. But the quiet seaside town is hiding a big secret and when Roland recognises an object at an antique stores he knows was stolen from one of The Collectors, he soon discovers that paying attention can be a superpower!
