This is the fifth book in Roland Harvey's series. I loved it for lots of reasons. Roland Harvey is one of my favourite Australian illustrators - I first fell in love with his work when I came across The Friends of Emily Culpepper. Harvey has a wonderfully spidery feel to his quirky lines and subtle colouring of his illustrations.
