Description

Meet Stevie and her father: they're fidders - tiny people that work alongside humans, helping them out with their problems. But when they team up to help Sandra May, a little girl with some big issues, they'll need all of their powers of persuasion and patience to help her work out the best ways to behave.I'm Stevie Clipper. Me and my dad, we're fidders, and it's our job to help humans. Humans can't see fidders, and we can't let you know we exist. That's the rule, anyway. But me, I'm not so good with rules. Especially when a human I care about is in big, big trouble...

Reviews

'- - Praise for Mary Murphy' - -

'Mary Murphy excels at writing cosy, sweet books which have a huge hug at their heart' - BookTrust

'One of Ireland's best picturebook makers. Readers big and small feel held by her stories in the same way a child feels held by a parent... you want to take the journey she creates repeatedly because it is so solid in its construction and so perfect in its execution that you'd rather be nowhere else but dancing with her books' - Mags Walsh
