Description

Second in a hilarious full-colour graphic novel series by the award-winning Tor Freeman, perfect for fans of Jamie Smart's Bunny vs Monkey. Come with Shirley as she falls down a hole into the Under-Underworld...

Shirley follows her cockroach companion George into the Under-Underworld and finds herself immediately crowned as queen. With Peels, a banana-skin royalist, Shirley travels across the junkyard of this new world to rescue George and confront the Giant Beast who has been terrorising the land.
