book cover Stories to Eat with a Banana (HarperCollins/Angus and Robertson Bluegum, 1998)

Five hilarious stories about a phaery (NOT fairy, pinhead) named Phredde.

Phredde is the phaery of grunge. She's tiny, ferocious and Pru's best friend. When Phredde's around odd things can happen, but what with Pru's brother turning into a werewolf and the teacher with fangs, Pru needs all the help she can get...

Magic, fantasy, real life - Pru's beginning to wonder if there really is a difference.

A collection of hilarious stories to read when your brain wants something light to munch on - like a banana.
