“The bright, bold illustration and humour make Squid Squad perfect for fans of Dog Man, Bunny vs Monkey and SpongeBob SquarePants.” – The Irish Times

“Riot of a read!” – Children’s Books Ireland

“A fun mix of fact and fiction. Definitely one to keep on hand for comics fans.” – Teach Primary

Ollie and Zing live in a town called Nowhere, deep under the sea – a place that’s home to the wackiest and weirdest creatures of the ocean, like the stinky Blob, crafty Hypno-snail, and the mysterious Snakey Unicorn Thing… Ollie and Zing’s antics with their colourful neighbours always keep things lively – especially when they get the better of dastardly old Thornelius, the thorn-shooting sea slug!

This book contains four hilarious mini episodes, featuring a missing pet sea anemone (who makes a dashing wig), a very mysterious noise, and a magical portal toilet…
