Description

Shy and anxious schoolboy Toby accidentally becomes king of a pixie kingdom at the bottom of his garden! These chaos-creating magical critters cause havoc for Toby at home and at school with their ridiculously silly powers (despite them only trying to help!), much to Toby's embarrassment and frustration. But when his extrovert friend Mo discovers Toby's secret double life, Toby realises that maybe being king of the pixies isn't so bad after all...



Relentlessly hilarious and full of zany slapstick, this new series will be loved by readers of Bunny vs Monkey, Dog Man, Star Cat and Evil Emperor Penguin.
