Adopted brothers Dribble the snail and Dash the firefly are

back - this time facing a legendary slug pirate and his cursed booty!

Third in the hilarious, highly illustrated black-and-white

series for readers aged 6+ by David O'Connell.

Dribble has a new invention: a Bubbler (made from superpowered

midge farts), perfect for making fizzy drinks. Cool Nat promises

to trial the invention in Grottibottigan's Juice Bar if the

bros fetch him some seaweed from Bogbrush-on-Sea...

But the treacherous pirate Captain Slugbeard is rumoured to have

buried his treasure on the very beach they're going to. And he's

placed a terrible curse of bad luck upon anyone who tries to nab

his loot.

At their hotel, the bros run into the naughty Dung Heap Gang,

who are keen to sniff out the treasure. With the help of Dribble's

latest invention, can Dribble and Dash beat the beetles and escape

the curse. or will they fall into the clutches of pirates? And

will Prudence the prawn - creepie crawlie of the sea - and Big

Steve the sardine prove to be friends or foes?

Witty and brilliantly author-illustrated by David O'Connell,

the illustrator behind Tom Vaughan's Hercules, Pip Bird's

The Naughtiest Unicorn and many more.

Absolutely teeming with funny and clever illustrations, perfect

for fans of fiction and graphic novels alike.

Packed with a hilarious cast of characters in a world of minibeasts,

mystery and mayhem!
