The second instalment in an adorable highly-illustrated series bursting with mystery and mischief for readers aged 5+

Younger readers will love this entertaining mystery with two fun animal characters in starring roles.


Watts and Whiskerton is the perfect series for newly independent readers or for parents to share with children transitioning away picture books for the first time. Packed with fun two-colour illustrations, plenty of mystery and intrigue, humour and charm, these delightful stories are a great gateway to chapter books for younger bookworms aged 5+.

Budding detective Watts is back in Little Gossip to visit the Whiskertons and attend the village fete bake off. He's looking forward to a fun weekend, but then disaster strikes when the ovens flood with batter and accusations of sabotage begin to fly!

Who's responsible for the cake catastrophe? And why would they want to ruin the competition? It's up to Watts and Pearl to solve the curious case. But can this dog and cat detective duo find the proof in the pudding?

Meg McLaren is an author-illustrator based in Inverness, Scotland. She has published multiple picture books, including Life is Magic, which was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize in 2017, and most recently Wee Unicorn. Watts & Whiskerton is her debut fiction series for young readers. When she's not up to her eyeballs in ink Meg can usually be found on a very long walk, in front of a TV mystery, or trying to convince her dog that it's not dinner time yet.
