Hilarious illustrated fiction about unlikely friends Squirrel and Duck. Laugh as they outwit bungling burglars, with only the help of their pet cactus! Perfect for fans of the Mr Gum, Dog Man and Grimwood series. Squirrel and Duck might seem strange housemates but they are drawn together by their secret – they are the only two talking animals in the world. When bulldozers arrive to redevelop the abandoned theme park they call home, they flee with nothing but Mr Spikes, Duck’s beloved ‘pet’ cactus. Overhearing a conversation between two nincompoop art thieves puts them on the trail of untold riches (according to Squirrel) or a great deed to help the nation (as far as Duck’s concerned). Only some surprisingly unhelpful woodland creatures and a temporary lack of transport stand in their way! Young readers will love this zanily brilliant story, full of unlikely scenarios and laugh-out-loud moments.

 

Review

Irritable Squirrel and jolly, sanguine Duck live together in an abandoned fibreglass tree - until their home is destroyed and they're drawn into a saga of stolen paintings and helicopter heists in their quest for a new one. A hilarious, highly illustrated beginning to an addictive new 6+ series. -- Imogen Russell Williams - Guardian Published On: 2025-02-21

Hilarious, off-the-wall and great fun -- Natasha Harding - Sun Published On: 2025-03-01

Enough jeopardy, action and pace in the story to engage young readers throughout - Books for Keeps

I just LOVE Squirrel and Duck! They are absolutely NUTS and won't stop arguing - even when they're trying to save their secret hideout. Mission Improbable had me laughting out laud from the very first page! -- Emily-Jane Clark, author of The Beasts of Knobbly Bottom
