      The first in a laugh-out-loud series from the ingenious mind of much-loved children's author Colin Thompson.Nerlin and Mordonna Flood have seven children, most of whom were not created in the traditional way like you or me, but were made in the cellar, using incredible mystical powers, some very shiny Jamie Oliver saucepans and a small chemistry set. The youngest child, Betty, is a normal, pretty little girl - but she's a useless witch. Her attempts at magic often go wrong, with unexpected yet welcome results. The next-door neighbours should've known better than to rob a family of witches and wizards. But they did, and they're about to find out what the Floods do to bad neighbours."This is a zany, witty, off-the-wall book ... A lot of fun for 8 to 12 year olds." - Reading Time

    • Peter macht sich auf die Suche nach dem verschwundenen Buch "Für immer leben". Nach vielen Irrwegen stößt er auf den einzigen Menschen, der das Buch gelesen hat, das uralte Kind. "Colin Thompson erzählt davon, was in und hinter den Büchern geschieht, die uns sonst nur den Rücken zukehren." (DIE WELT) "Diese Parabel auf den Sinn von Leben und Sterben, von Werden und Vergehen ist, ... ähnlich wie "Der kleine Prinz" von Saint-Exupéry, ein Buch für jede Altersstufe." (NDR)

    • " Grand-père, j'aimerais tant que tu ailles mieux ! - J'irai mieux lorsque tu auras atteint l'Atlantide. - Je croyais que l'Atlantide était une simple histoire de continent imaginaire. - C'est ce que disent les gens qui ne voient pas plus loin que le bout de leur nez. Ils n'y croiraient pas, même si tu les y conduisais et leur faisais parcourir la rue principale. La seule chose à faire, c'est de regarder au bon endroit. - Mais, Grand-Père, je n'ai que dix ans. Ils ne me laisseront pas aller où je veux. - L'Atlantide est ici même, partout autour de toi. Tu dois juste apprendre à chercher... "
