About

Welcome back to I Spy Island . . . the unmissable new series from multi-million copy bestsellers Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet, creators of Supertato!

In the middle of the ocean, miles from anywhere, something new has just washed ashore and a brand-new adventure is about to begin . . .



Join Island, Glove, Banana, Bird, Bottle and Treasure Chest on their second sunny adventure, as they spy . . . a book who's lost its story and a shark who just might eat them because he's . . . bored?!



This terrific tale of fun, friendship and the brilliance of books and storytelling will be beloved by children and adults alike and is brought to you by the inspired minds behind such bestselling and popular characters as Supertato, Barry the Fish with Fingers, Norman the Slug with the Silly Shell and No-Bot the Robot with No Bottom.

Paul Linnet was born in Brighton and grew up in the Midlands, reading Tintin and playing classic 80s video games, before becoming obsessed with scribbling, writing, guitars and motorcycles. He studied Graphic Design at Derby University, and later moved back to Brighton where he met Sue Hendra. They made up a story about a fish with fingers and then a slug with a doughnut for a shell, and now no one can stop them from writing more and more frankly ridiculous books. They live in Brighton – and Paul still loves scribbling, writing, guitars and motorcycles.



Sue Hendra grew up in Wimbledon and has always loved making up stories and drawing pictures. Her favourite book as a child was Mr. Silly. She graduated from Brighton University in 1994 and has been creating picture books ever since. In 2006 she met Paul Linnet and could instantly see that she'd met a fellow nitwit who liked talking nonsense. They went on to create many bestselling books together, working in a small room in their house in Brighton. Sue loves swimming, and can swim up and down for a very long time. Her favourite book is still Mr. Silly.
