Anders and the Comet: Anders 1 Volume 1 - Paperback

by Gregory MacKay (Author), Gregory MacKay (Illustrator)

A sweet and funny story in cartoons about the adventures of Anders and his friends, which will delight fans of Peanuts and Tom Gates.

Meet Anders, Eden and their new friend, Bernie. It's the school holidays, and there are comics to be made, games to be played, ice-cream to be eaten, and rhinos to impress at Wekiwa water park.

Then Anders and his friends meet the Green Grabber and things take on a whole new twist, leading Anders to a wonderful pet, Skip, and to wild adventures - and a dramatic rescue - in the sky.

An endearing story of fun, friendship and unexpected courage.
