Publisher's Synopsis
What would you do if you had to face a menacing screeching harpy; a massive silver-horned tarantula; a living, breathing, walking dog poo (yes, you read that right!); or the abominable Juicy Eggsnorter?
Most people never even encounter one of these foul fiends. But in one night, ten-year-old Albert not only comes face to face with the crazy creatures, he must defeat them if he has any hope of making amends with his classmate Lucy, saving their lives, and, of course, winning twenty-four freshly made banana sandwiches.
Partnering with his devoted Great Dane, Archie, and his twiggy comrade, Stickman, Albert plucks up his courage and plunges ahead into the risky and ridiculous realm that has taken Lucy captive.
Find out what happens next in G. M. Howick's delightful and daring adventure, The Dreams of Albert Winter-and discover just how dastardly the Juicy Eggsnorter is!
Told with a pinch of seriousness and more than a dash of quirkiness, fans of Roald Dahl will appreciate this hilarious and heartening tale of unexpected bravery and the power of friendship.
