Dubious Deeds 1 (Bk.1) [Paperback]

Philip Ardagh (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 2, 2004

The pint-sized hero of the best-selling Eddie Dickens Trilogy is back in Dubious Deeds, the first of his Further Adventures, and this time he's many miles from home. In this ridiculous tale of deceit and double-dealing, Eddie Dickens is away from Awful End in the highly unlikely highlands of Victorian Scotland. He finds himself amongst a group of vegetarian strangers living in Even Madder Aunt Maud's Scottish ancestral pile; embroiled in a plot that could rock the very foundations of the British monarchy; and in danger of being late for his tea.

This review is from: Dubious Deeds (Further Advent/Eddie Dickens) (Hardcover)

The whole Eddie Dickens series is fabulous.

I enjoy reading it to my wife and son (7) on an evening.

My son goes on to read it himself after we have finished one.

Start from the beginning with Awful End and go from there.

5* to Philip Ardgh and his rather odd sense of humour :)
