The Author

Peter Ronan writes warm, funny children’s mysteries and adventures set in the cosy world of Maplewick.

His stories are full of curious kids, secret clues, loyal friends, local legends, and just enough chaos to keep the biscuits in danger.

Meet The Smudges

The Smudges are a chaotic, lovable family who somehow turn every simple day out into a full-blown disaster. Packed into their battered caravan and armed with crisps, stubbornness, and very little common sense, they stumble into hilarious adventures where mess, mayhem, and family love always come first.
