Frankie's World: A Graphic Novel
From acclaimed Autistic Irish comedian Aoife Dooley comes a fresh and funny debut middle-grade graphic novel about fitting in and standing out. Frankie is different from everyone in her class, and she can't figure out why. She has trouble concentrating, and her classmates tease her for not having a dad at home. To try to make sense of the world, Frankie doodles her daily adventures in a journal. One day, when Frankie sneaks into her mom's room and sees her biological father's name on her birth certificate, she decides to go on a mission to track him down. Could Frankie's father be the key to finding out why Frankie feels so adrift? A unique story told with a light touch and an abundance of warmth and wit, Frankie's World is laugh-out-loud funny and a love letter to daring to be different.
How to Be Massive
You know your one Nikita? You've seen her around town: always within 100 metres of Penneys (where she likes to spend her 'eurdos'), her hair done up in a 'hun bun', sporting her 'masso' runners and her eyebrows on fleek. In How to be Massive Nikita shares her illustrated guide to being massive, from masso make-up to stunnin' accessories, the vital difference between your 'going out' and 'staying in' PJs, as well as life hacks such as places to hide your naggin and how to whiten your runners with toothpaste. Through her popular Instagram account Your One Nikita, illustrator Aoife Dooley has made the spicebag part of our everyday language. Informed by her experiences growing up in Coolock and affectionately parodying fiery working-class Dublin women, it provides the inspiration for her hilarious and brilliantly observed first book, How to Be Massive. C'mon ya pox, buy the book 'Razor-sharp observational humour ... has the zeitgeisty quotability of a contemporary Roddy Doyle.' The Irish Times 'How to Be Massive is funny, affectionate and very, very sharp. Almost social history and always great fun, this book is, well, massive.' Roddy Doyle

Oh, you know them. The man on public transport who opens a filthy chicken fillet roll beside you first thing in the morning, your co-worker who corners you in a conversation about their children for half an hour, the people who saunter into a shop at 8.59 pm when it's closing at 9.00 pm - but fear not, Aoife has a solution for every poxy situation.

Not an Alphabet Book: The Case of the Missing Cake
Follow Bear from A to Z as he hunts for a cake thief in a hilarious alphabet book crossed with a whodunit. There has been a terrible crime, Bear tells us. Someone has STOLEN a delicious chocolate cake! Bear sets off to find the culprit, questioning characters and compiling clues from A to Z. Among the suspects: a gingerbread man (G) with a bite out of his head, a kite (K) that may be above the law, and an octopus (O) with grabby tentacles. But — hold on — are those crumbs on Bear’s page? Is that frosting on his face? Looks like our narrator is a little unreliable! And it appears our culprit might be the one that Bear wants readers to suspect the least of all. . . . Author Eoin McLaughlin’s sly, cheeky humor takes the alphabet book to inventive new heights, while best-selling illustrator Marc Boutavant’s smart and striking graphic-style art matches the irreverent tone. Young ABC learners and older fans of funny stories will laugh out loud at Bear’s uproarious “investigation” and his anything-but-usual suspects.
