Knife
48 books4 followersPen name of Duncan McCoshan
Both Knife and Packer spent most of their childhood’s in London - but on different sides of the river. Knife in South London and Packer in North London. Although they wouldn’t meet for another 20 years they were already heading in the same direction. Knife loved to draw, taking inspiration from Ronald Searle, The Dandy and Beano. Meanwhile in North London Packer loved to read, enjoying everything from Dr Brainstorm to Willard Price and Asterix to Tintin. So even though they hadn’t met they were already laying the ground work for their partnership writing and illustrating books together. In their spare time Knife was happiest playing with his toy soldiers, whilst Packer would head down to the Regents Canal with a pint of maggots and even catch the odd fish!

In this first book of the series, we meet Beth and her family her study crazy sister and karaoke obsessed dad along with her best friend Cordy who alike her is obsessed with Dusk Light their version of course of Twilight!
In this book we see how an art project causes a lot of trouble and how things you plan can go terribly awry it made me laugh and the drawings annotated it perfectly to help being it to life!

A young girl gets too close to some crocodiles.
I thought this was an amusing story with some good illustrations.
