About the author

As a child, Pamela was lucky enough to grow up in a house full of pets and go to a primary school where lots of spooky and weird things happened (well, in her imagination at least). As a student, Pamela’s student jobs included: fishwife, teaching basketball in America, phlebotomist and Artist Liaison for a (really bad) Abba tribute band. Now, when she’s not writing or going out and about meeting readers, Pamela teaches philosophy to teenagers.

Her top selling stories include The Spy Who Loved School Dinners which won the Blue Peter Best Story Award and My Head Teacher is a Vampire Rat which won The Children’s Book Award. Two of her books, Petunia Peri and There’s a Werewolf in My Tent, were shortlisted for the Lollies – the Laugh Out Loud Awards.

Pamela lives in Dundee with her baby boy and their two awesome cats, Bear & Carlos. If she wasn’t working as a writer and a teacher she’d like to open a luxury hotel for stray cats.

This is officially #10 in an ongoing series, but my 7-year-old and I didn't have any trouble starting here when Nosy Crow sent me an ARC. The opening is absolutely hilarious, I loved reading it out loud to my 7-y-o, we both laughed a LOT...and then he took off with it, because he couldn't wait to be read the rest! And he hasn't given it back yet.

So. I haven't actually finished it myself yet, but it is definitely a recommendation from our family! (He says, "Mummy, tell them it is SO GOOD!" It's a five star rating from him, because he HAS read it all but wants to keep it for himself for a while yet.)

And we're going back to get all the earlier books in the series because this was such a success!

Tai buvo labai juokinga knyga

[Matilda Henton · Rating 4 out of 5]

I like this book a lot ,it is very funny and l like how Maisie does not faint much like she does in other books .📚 And this author does do a lot of books like this l have read a few books by this author to. I would recommend it to you if you like funny 😜 stories and mythical creatures ,and a bit of mystery.

[Neil Cake · Rating 2 out of 5]

Very much did not enjoy reading this monotonous non-adventure to my 6 year old. She seemed to like it. I got annoyed by the constant use of, "and that's when so-and-so said such-and-such... and... and... and... or something ." I'm not an idiot. I get that it's trying to speak to kids the way they speak, but so much of it is just bad writing. And it uses the word "mega" - more than once. Who has said that since the 1990s?!

És una història que recomano molt a les persones a qui agradi les aventures, el misteri i la intriga. D'aquesta col·lecció i m'han agradat molt els dos que he llegit. Són molt divertits i m'agrada com s'expliquen.

This is such a fantastic series of books.
It was so funny and I loved every second reading this book.
Masie has broken her leg and her friends convince themselves her leg is cursed.
This starts the usual chaos of event that will have you laughing out loud.

[Chrissi · Rating 3 out of 5]

I can see that this book would be highly engaging for young children. It’s humorous and adventurous! You don’t need to have read the other books in the series to enjoy it. It makes sense as a stand-alone.

[Zoe · Rating 2 out of 5]

Granted I'm not the targeted audience for this book but as a primary teacher I'm keen reader of children's literature. I found this book to be too dumbed down for my Year 4 class but it would suit 6-7 year olds as it is an easy read.

[Sophie Crane · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved this book, it really had me wanting to read more! I like the relationship the friends have and always there to help each other. I always think the illustrations keep the book super interesting too.

All the books in the series are worth reading for sure!

I'm only halfway through this book and I'm considering reading it again. I remember giggling with this one. I don't really have much to say lol, I love Maisie's lil plushy its so adorbs and when I was young I had a plushy ,pretty much like every normal child, so that was something to relate to.

"This story is very funny, full of mystery and a little bit scary at times. The characters are nice people who care about each other, and support each other through hard times in this book. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy comedy."

[Asha - A Cat, A Book, And A Cup Of Tea · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sadly not my cup of tea as far as middle grade goes, though I can see why the series is so popular, and I recommend it to those looking for high-octane, laugh-a-minute reads!

[Gary Mc · Rating 4 out of 5]

My son loved this, 2nd in the series we have read and we'll definitely be reading more from the author.

[Abby · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another fab read in the Baby Aliens series. I adore reading these and my class find them hysterical.

[Zoe Antoniades · Rating 5 out of 5]

Pamela Butchart is fantastic at capturing the melodrama that children create when they allow their imaginations to run away with them

[Charley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I think this is a great book . Not a fan of mummies but ...

[Nikola · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ten tom nieco mniej podobał mi sie od pozostałych, jednak wiele razy mnie rozśmieszył i również mi się podobał.

Dar viena puiki Pamelos Butchart šios serijos knyga! Buvo labai įdomu ir linksma skaityti :-)

Labai patiko šita knyga

[Tim Robinson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Those four should not be allowed loose in a hospital. They should be locked in an asylum where they belong.

[Mary Pimbblet · Rating 4 out of 5]

I thought this was a strong episode in the Baby Alien series. It was a fun read with my eight year old daughter, who always begs for more chapters no matter how many we read.

Good to read when you are ill

I liked this book because I also had a broken leg. It was funny and adventurous. After reading this I want to read the other books in the series.
