A timeless illustrated story of friendship, dinosaurs and the magic of imagination for readers aged 5+ by a bestselling author and an award-winning artist.
Mabel lives with her parents in The Mermaid Hotel by the sea. She likes to keep an eye on the comings and goings of all the guests, particularly their most interesting guest and Mabel's best friend, Madame Badobedah: one of the first lady explorers who has travelled all over the world!
Madame Badobedah has pirouetted through pyramids, skated across rivers, swum with mermaids and even helped a Triceratops with a toothache – now she tells Mabel all about her adventures while the two mudlark at the seaside.
And Madame Badobedah and Mabel team up for a new adventure: returning a priceless emerald to the Natural History Museum. And, just maybe, they will meet a dinosaur along the way…
