PREPARE TO RE-ENTER THE GARDEN.

Pip is now the ruler of Oakhold. Yay! But there's already trouble. Boo!

Shockingly, it turns out Pip is actually a pretty rubbish leader. Something sinister is stirring in the garden - and Pip could not give two hoots about tackling it.

That is, until she sends her best friend Twig out on a heroic mission, and he is KIDNAPPED. Now it's up to Pip and a most unlikely ally to get him back - and try their best to avoid . . . DEATH BY TOAD.

PRAISE FOR UNFAIRIES: 'I loved everything about this book. It's just SO funny and it looks brilliant. Love the energy, love the palette, love the textures love the characterisation . . . Move over Tinkerbell, there's a new favourite fairy in town.'

Rob Biddulph, bestselling author of Draw With Rob and Peanut Jones

About Huw Aaron

Huw Aaron is a Welsh cartoonist, author and illustrator. After a short and fairly hopeless career in finance, Huw found a niche as a magazine cartoonist, producing joke cartoons for, among others, Private Eye, Prospect and The Spectator. Huw then started making comics and illustrating children’s books in his native Welsh. Since 2013, he has written or illustrated over 60 Welsh-language books, and has won numerous awards including the 2023 Tir na n-Og and Welsh Children's Book of the Year prizes. He was also founding editor of the comic Mellten, and presented the weekly art programme Cer i Greu on S4C. Huw’s harshest critics – and his best friends – are his wife Luned and their two daughters.
