Bumble and Snug and the Angry Pirates: Book 1

Product Information

When you’re reading a prose book, I love prose books, but it’s line, line, line, paragraph, line, line, line, paragraph. Bumble and Snug have to come up with a super action plan to stop Sparklehoof. And with a giant kitten on the loose and a jelly city, they will have to work FAST! The hilariousness of Bunny vs Monkey meets the emotional world of Inside Out with this full-colour graphic novel series for readers aged 5+ all about little monsters with BIG feelings going on hilarious adventures together! Janice: How did you make Bumble such a funny character? Can you give us any tips for writing funny stories?

When the little ghost gets overwhelmed and vanishes before they can begin their act, Bumble and Snug will have to save the show. But there are other obstacles to overcome too – and it starts with a falling stage! So, Bumble and Snug are two little creatures and I like to call these types of creatures bugbops, little monsters. And the thing I like about these is they can be as simple as you want to make them or as complex as you want to make them. Think about how your characters might feel and how you might show this - remember everything you heard about drawing characters from Mark. Introducing the super buddies! From a runaway ice-cream van to a lost teddy bear, Bumble, Snug and Sparklehoof the unicorn save the day. But not everybody is happy when Sparklehoof gets too excited with his magic. Think of a very simple story (you might already have a couple of characters from the earlier activities!) This is your chance to send them on an adventure.This is a brain-popping idea it makes me laugh so much! The characters (bumble and snug) have so much differences but fit perfectly as a pair. They go...

I think we’re almost there. I’m going to add a few of the little stars this colour and I’m thinking maybe one more little thing, a little bit of light yellow as well just to show that it’s shimmering and I think that this bugbop might be done. And I think that’s looking like how I’m feeling today, which is a nervous sort of giddy excitement. Now, the final thing to do with any bugbop is I’ve got to think of a name for it. So, excitement… Zip! I like that.Best friends Bumble and Snug are Bugbops – little monsters filled with BIG feelings! Join them and a VERY excited unicorn, in this new, full-colour graphic novel, as they go on a thrilling, funny adventure and learn about the world outside and inside.
