Mrs Pepperpot and the Treasure - Author Alf Proysen

A Tiny Adventure with Big Surprises!

In Mrs Pepperpot and the Treasure, written by Alf Proysen and published by Penguin Random House, children aged 3–5 will be swept into another delightfully imaginative tale from the beloved Mrs Pepperpot series.

This time, our tiny heroine shrinks once again—and just as Puss the cat has discovered a mysterious treasure in the neighbour’s barn! Clinging to his back, Mrs Pepperpot sets off on a daring mission, but being small isn’t easy. She must outwit swooping magpies, dodge flying snowballs and escape a barking dog, all to uncover the secret treasure.

Full of charming illustrations and gentle suspense, this 32-page picture book invites little readers into a magical world where bravery comes in very small packages.
