A collection of funny stories sure to delight eight-year-olds, with a gorgeous new cover illustrated by Adam Stower.
Helen Paiba is known as one of the most committed, knowledgeable
and acclaimed children's booksellers in Britain. For more than
twenty years she owned and ran the Children's Bookshop in Muswell
Hill, London, which under her guidance gained a superb reputation
for its range of children's books and for the advice available to
its customers.
Helen was involved with the Booksellers Association for many years
and served on both its Children's Bookselling Group and the Trade
Practices Committee. In 1995 she was given honorary life membership
of the Booksellers Association of Great Britain and Ireland in
recognition of her outstanding services to the association and to
the book trade. In the same year the Children's Book Circle
(sponsored by Books for Children) honoured her with the Eleanor
Farjeon Award, given for distinguished service to the world of
children's books.
She retired in 1995 and now lives in London.
