'Our finest children’s author' - Richard Osman
Grimwood needs a new mayor! Titus has finally decided he’s had enough, leaving
behind big antlers to fill. With characters new and old throwing their hats
into the ring, who has what it takes, who has a hidden agenda, and who is
simply in it for the parties? The only people who can decide the fate of
Grimwood are . . . the residents of Grimwood. Oh no.
Fully illustrated throughout and full of heart, laughs and surprises, this
is the must-read fifth title in the bestselling and fantastically funny
Grimwood series.
