About the book
Hugely funny, exciting and bursting with originality, ‘The Spick and The Span’ is an unmissable fantasy debut for 2025.
In Helm, generations of careless magicians have left the city brimming with dangerous magic. Leave anything unattended and it will change: houses turn to gingerbread, teapots pour pond water, and floors become lava. While magicians claim to keep these magical mishaps under control, the real heroes are far less celebrated: the cleaners.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We hope your pupils can join us for this exciting opportunity to meet a fantastic children’s author and celebrate the joy of reading. Sign-up now.
