Synopsis

Every kid in town knows about Spud Murphy. Grown-ups think she's the kindly old librarian, but kids know the truth. They've heard all about the gas-powered spud gun she keeps hidden under her desk-make so much as a sound in her library and you could get spudded with soggy potatoes. Laugh out loud and you may never be seen again . . . And now, in a major coup of parental injustice, Will and his older brother, Marty, have been ordered to spend their summer vacation in Spud's library! Will brothers Will and Marty survive a summer marooned on the carpet of Spud's children's section, under the watchful eye of this terrifying librarian? Or will they discover a new interest that surprises even them?

Biographie de l'auteur

Eoin Colfer began writing plays at an early age, forcing his unfortunate classmates to dress up as marauding Vikings when they would have preferred to be outdoors doing some real marauding. Browbeaten by constant encouragement from his family, Eoin continued to write as an adult. His first novel, Benny and Omar, was an instant best-seller in Ireland and his Artemis Fowl novels caused a sensation with film companies, publishers, the press and readers all over the world. Artemis was shortlisted for the Whitbread Children's Book of the Year and won the Children's Book of the Year at the British Book Awards and the WHSmith Children's Book of the Year. Eoin lives in Wexford in the South East of Ireland with his family.
