Description:

Forget heroes, meet Shady the sneaky squirrel thief and his

relentless rivals! A hilarious, highly illustrated, black-and-white

crime caper for readers of 6+ by Nick East, illustrator of Toto

the Ninja Cat.

While normal squirrels are out stashing nuts for winter, Shady

loves collecting treasure. The shiny kind. The kind that belongs

to someone else. Yes, Shady is a shameless crook, and that's exactly

how he's landed back in Badun Island Prison. There's only one

way out... escape!

Unfortunately, tortoise crime boss Naughty Tortie wants Shady

for her latest job: stealing the Golden Acorn of Destiny from Big

City Bank. And Shady can't refuse. Reunited with his old partner

in crime, Roxy 'the Paws' the raccoon - and a series of criminal

critters who may be heroes or rivals - Shady is off on the mega-heist

of his career... But will he actually get his paws on the loot?

Starring a squirrel supervillain and a hilarious cast of unexpected

animal crimelords...

The perfect read for fans of Toto the Ninja Cat, Bad

Guys, The Terrible Trio and Grimwood, with the

anarchic energy of Dog Man and Bunny vs Monkey.

Packed with Nick East's stunning illustrations throughout in

black and white.
