From Mimi the bunny with stars in her eyes, to café owner Duckie (signature dish fish biscuits), to Ace, unicorn new arrival, the residents of Happy Hill are an unusual, even eccentric bunch but they are all super-lovable and their adventures in these comic strip adventures by the inimitable Sophy Henn are hugely entertaining.
In this new story, they attract the attention of villainous Knick Knacks, who loves ‘the stuff’ but in particular, the cute! In typically villainous fashion, he sets out to collect cute friends, by swiping and imprisoning them. Oh no! Can our heroes escape this fate, or persuade Knick Knacks that’s not actually how friendship works?
Each short chapter is a mini-adventure in itself, dynamic, funny, and illustrated in the brightest, most eye-catching style possible. Love comics? Love cuties? Love funny adventures? You’ll love, love, love this!
