Relish in mischief, adventure and the most unusual family ever, with the bestselling and multi-award-winning Katrina Nannestad.

Frances Bloom's dreams have come true. Her grandparents are a honey-coloured bear and a garden gnome. Nasty Ms Thistle has been taken to Harsh Island Home for Unwanted Teachers and Cats. Her class is being taught by a retired pirate and a busker. Her friends are many and her happiness is huge. So why is she troubled?

Could it be the mean cats that are new to the village? The talking bush in her garden? The stolen tricycle? Or the feeling that she's being followed?

Can Frances work it out before disaster strikes?

Delight in the cheeky antics of eight-year-old Frances Bloom with multi-award-winning Australian author Katrina Nannestad.
