DESCRIPTION
What would you do if you found a tunnel beneath your shed? What if you knew it led to a whole other world? And what if that world might be home to a dragon ... with two heads?
Professor Clive Oddney has no doubts - he must investigate! Armed with his late Uncle Cuthbert's journal of mysterious creatures, the retired naturalist and his loyal friend Magnus, the talking magpie, embark on adventure into Otherland. Their quest? To seek out The Two-Headed Firedrake. Will they find it? Not if the mad, the bad and the downright weird buttock-snapping inhabitants of this world have anything to do about it.
A wonderfully wacky Rodney Matthews concept, brimming with his stunning illustrations and a fun-filled story by Sarah Matthews. Ideal for readers age 7+ or read-aloud together (adult fans of fantasy, fun and dragons will love this too!)
Presented in hardback, this is a first edition book from the first print run (with typographical errors.)

Bought as a gift, this book is amazing!
I "pop by now and again" being a life long fan of Rodney's art and altho have not studied in depth - as this book is a present, I can see will delight both with Sarah's (Hi!) story and the beautiful images. Fast, safe and well packaged delivery. Thank you so much.

Hi! Thank you Mandee.
Another triumph in fantasy literature, for children of all ages.
Charmingly written by Sarah with beautifully rendered illustrations , as one would expect from Rodney.
Created with love and affection, as in everything they do, every bookshelf deserves a copy.
Treat your children, spoil yourself, you don't need an excuse, just buy it.
Magnus Opus - we love it! Thank you for your review.
Absolutely loved this book! The story, the writing, and of course the artwork are all spectacular. I am so happy I have added this book to my collection! Thank you Rodney and Sarah for a superior work!
Have been a fan since the 90s so to get an original new story is amazing and that it was so much fun to read too
