Publisher's Synopsis
THREE STORYQUEST BOOKS IN ONE:
- The Pirates of Monkey Island
- The Wrong Bus
- The Good, the Bad and the Sheriff's Horse
Welcome to StoryQuest, the book where YOU are in charge of what happens and YOU are the star of the adventure. Start your quest on the first page, where your challenge will be explained, and at the end of each chapter you'll find two options - choose a page to decide what you want to do next.
As a bonus feature, every StoryQuest book has a SPECIAL CHARACTER hidden amongst the pages. Find the character and they'll give you a STORYQUEST STAR. This will help you unlock the ultimate ending to your adventure.
There are SO many different paths and SO many different endings - some are good, some are bad, some are funny, some are sad. Which will you choose? Will you complete the challenge? And where will your story end? Good luck, intrepid StoryQuester - if anyone can finish this quest, it's YOU.
The Pirates of Monkey Island (Beginner level)
One-Eyed Brenda and Jimmy Smallhands are good pirates. They're the kind of pirates who feed your bones to the fishes then take their grannies out for a nice pot of tea and a slice of cake. But now monkey-pirates have stolen their treasure and they need YOUR help to find it.
Will you face the fearsomely cute Captain Fluffy-Beard and survive Stinky Silverback Shelly's armpits to win the loot? And will you collect the StoryQuest Star along the way? Good luck, StoryQuester - if anyone can find the missing treasure, it's YOU!
The Wrong Bus (Beginner level)
Waiting for a bus is more boring than anything else in the whole, entire universe. Until suddenly-
VROOSH!
The sky opens up and an intergalactic school bus bursts through the clouds. A robot gets out. Her memory box has been damaged and she needs YOUR help to take the children from Miss Tentacle's School for Every Alien back to their home planets. Can you navigate the darkest depths of the endless universe to help your robotic friend? Will you face giant space-eels and brave the Great Bear to locate the bus-stops? And can you collect the StoryQuest Star along the way?
Good luck, StoryQuester - if anyone can fly this space-bus, it's YOU.
The Good, the Bad and the Sheriff's Horse (Expert level)
Shovelling horse poo for pocket money sure does stink. It's worse than wiping tables at the ol' saloon and it's worse than untangling rope at Lasoos 'R' Us. But you're in the Wild West, these are the Sheriff's stables, and there's a hint of adventure hanging in the air.
The Sheriff's horse has giddy-upped into a cactus and caught the Itchity Fever. Someone will have to leave town to find him a cure and that someone is YOU. Will you climb mountains and cross deserts to help your four-legged friend? Can you outsmart Billy the Goat and brave Crabbity Jack's Shack to find the ingredients? And will you collect the StoryQuest Star along the way? Good luck, intrepid StoryQuester - if anyone can save the Sheriff's horse, it's YOU.
CUSTOMER REVIEWS
'Really beautifully written and a great story. My daughter puts a lot of thought into the choices. It's lovely to see. I'm not too proud to say I'm enjoying it with her so much I have to take it from her after we stop so she doesn't read it all without me! Properly brilliant and a wonderful way to enjoy bedtime stories with your children.'
