Dreadful Acts

By Philip Ardagh About · Illustrated by D Roberts

Eddie Dickens continues his hilarious adventures in the second book in this best-selling trilogy, hailed by the Guardian as ‘A scrumptious cross between Dickens and Monty Python’. Eddie Dickens narrowly avoids an explosion, a hot-air balloon and arrest, only to find himself falling head-over-heels for a girl with a face like a camel’s, and into the hands of a murderous gang of escaped convicts who have ‘one little job for him to do’.
