Quin Majik and the Marvellous Machine
Author(s): Fleur Beale & Philip Webb (ill.)
When Quin Majik and his parents move to Tidy Street they soon learn about The Rules. These tell the residents what they may and may not do, eat and wear. But the Majiks, expecially Quin, have no intention of following them.
Fleur Beale's wicked sense of humour and Phip Webb's zany illustrations combine to make a wild romp of a book.
