WELL DESERVED SUPPORT FOR POPULAR AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR

4/7/2014

4 Comments

By now, you would have read some great reviews of On The Nose by Robert Favretto, illustrated by Kevin Burgemeestre, and learnt about the life and likes of this talented author. Below are the photographs taken at the Rosebud launch. These photos will tell you how popular he and Kevin are. The room was packed with fans both young and older. This talented pair spent a couple of hours signing books. It was lovely to see such support. If you missed any of the tour, the list is below the photographs.

Some fans having a bit of fun.

The line-up for buying and signing went right around the room.

Getting close to writer's cramps about now.

The sales team.

As part of the blog tour, we will give away a copy of ‘On The Nose’. To be in the draw, simply comment on the post and send an email of your comment to [email protected] with the subject "On The Nose competition". Competition closes midnight EDST 15th April 2014.

Synopsis:

Justin Credible is a real live Pinocchio with a keen sense of smell. Trained as a super sleuth for the DNA (Department of Nasal Affairs), he is often called upon at the first sniff of trouble. With a nose for those hard to crack smelly cases, it's no surprise when Justin responds to an urgent call for help. Someone or something has dropped a stink bomb in the city of Aroma – and the stench is devastating! Gardens are wilting, birds are dropping out of the sky, and the residents are leaving in droves! With sleuth-like determination, Justin follows his nose to solve the mystery of the phantom smell before it wipes Aroma off the map!

ABOUT THE BOOK: On the Nose is a fun and entertaining read that I'm sure would be enjoyed by young boys. This story is along the same lines as the Just books and Captain Underpants series: crazy, funny, and really silly – everything a young boy loves in a book.

Join us for reviews and more interesting facts about Robert and the book as you follow the tour.
