  • The perfect introduction to independent reading, with warm, lovable characters and an adventure centered around friendship and fun.

Each hilarious Max and Chaffy story is interspersed with engaging search and find pages, since Chaffy has a habit of getting lost, as well as items that aren’t where they should be!

He studied art at college for four years, but it was just an excuse to practice drawing animals with goggly-eyes. His comic Fish-Head Steve was the first comic to be shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize. Jamie has illustrated comics for The Sunday Times, the Dandy, and the Beano, and is also the creator of the Max and Chaffy comic series for younger readers, and the illustrated middle-grade Flember series.
