the Curse of Fart Witch

SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY SMELLS!One terrible fart. One ancient witch. One town in serious trouble.Eleven-year-old Jacob Garcia has enough problems. His older brother Cooper is a walking disaster, nobody takes Jacob seriously, and school is a daily exercise in surviving embarrassment. But when one of Cooper's spectacularly disgusting farts awakens an ancient and extremely unpleasant witch, things get a whole lot worse.Meet the Fart Witch. She's wicked, she's powerful, and she has a rather unusual appetite. The worse something smells, the stronger she becomes. Now the town of Woodville is being overrun by barking spiders, mysterious green clouds and supernatural chaos. With the adults seemingly incapable of understanding what's happening, it's up to Jacob and his friends to uncover the witch's secrets before the whole town goes down in a cloud of toxic gas.Armed with quick thinking, questionable plans and a healthy supply of toilet humour, this unlikely group of heroes is about to discover that saving the world can be a very messy business.A DYSLEXIA-FRIENDLY BOOK DESIGNED FOR ALL READERSPublished by Dapple Grey Press, The Curse of the Fart Witch has been carefully written and designed to make reading more accessible without compromising the humour, adventure or complexity of the story.Interest age: 8-12 years | Reading age: approximately 8-9 yearsThe paperback includes:Accessible language: Carefully edited sentence structure and vocabulary, guided by established readability measures including Flesch Reading Ease and Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level.Reader-conscious typography: Clear sans-serif body text, slightly increased letter spacing, generous line spacing and manageable line lengths.Thoughtful page design: Short paragraphs, left-aligned text and generous white space to help avoid overwhelming pages.Illustrations throughout: Expressive drawings, playful typography and comic-book sequences that bring the action to life and provide visual breaks from continuous prose.Quality paperback production: Cream-coloured, book-quality paper chosen for a comfortable reading experience and durability.Our approach has also been informed by feedback from dyslexic children and specialist dyslexia tutors.For confident readers, it's a fast, funny adventure.
