Mr Grumblebum at the Waxworks by David Graham, illustrations by Salvador Capuyan (Xlibris) PB RRP $19.99 ISBN 978369422946
Here is a
self-published picture book that is the third in the Grumblebum series. In this
book, the main character is not Mr Grumblebum but two lively boys, Freddy and
Herbie, who are always looking for action around the small town of Farleigh,
where they and the grumpy old man live. The boys get up to mischief some
mornings on the way to school when they walk down Elm Street and try to
innocently upset some residents.
One day, however,
Mr Grumblebum is waiting for the boys: to their surprise, he chases after them.
To escape from the umbrella-wielding old man, they hide inside the waxworks.
The book has
full-age, cartoon-type illustrations that capture Mr Grumblebum's
personality. However, it could have been improved with some professional
proofreading.
