Inspector Croc Investigates (Whoops-a-daisy World)
Author(s): Sam Lloyd
The peace and tranquility of Whoops-a-Daisy World has been shattered! There's a mini crime wave sweeping the town. Various incidents have been reported across Whoops-a-Daisy World and it's up to Inspector Croc to investigate. Just who could be causing all the commotion? Can Croc piece together all the clues and crack the case? Of course he can! Another fantastically funny story from the incredibly talented Sam Lloyd, winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and award-winning author of Mr Pusskins. Sam's Whoops-a-Daisy World adventures are filled with drama, action, heaps of hilarity and the all-important feelgood ending.

A sweetly silly story. -- Financial Times 20090905
Mr Pusskins, Sam's first hilarious book for Orchard, won the Booktrust Early Years Award for Best Pre-School Book, was also a New York Times Bestseller and was shortlisted for the V&A Illustration Award and Sheffield Book Prize. Mr Pusskins has since returned for more fun in Mr Pusskins and Little Whiskers and Mr Pusskins Best in Show. Sam's brilliant Whoops-a-Daisy World series for Orchard is proving to be a real winner with children (and adults too!), and it all started with the first story, Doctor Miaow's Big Emergency. Sam has written and illustrated a number of novelty books including Calm Down, Boris! the Richard and Judy award-winner, What Colour Are Your Knickers? for Gullane, and the Sainsbury's Books for Babies Award winner, Happy Dog, Sad Dog for Little Tiger Press. Sam lives in Brighton.
