Don Powell and Slade Are For Life - Not Just For Christmas are pleased to officially announce that the long awaited children's book by Don...
'The Adventures of Bibble Brick' is now finally available to buy! It's available from Amazon in both an e-book and a hardcover edition! Here is the link to buy: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BFV26SN4
Slade's powerhouse drummer wrote the original manuscript in the sixties, but apart from the chapters being printed as a serial in the Slade fan magazine in the seventies, it has never been published.
Now, Don has teamed up with Lise Lyng Falkenberg, the Danish author who co-wrote Don’s official biography “Look Wot I Dun”. Together they have rewritten the story from the sixties to make it more up to date without it losing its original charm, humour, and quirkiness. It is beautifully illustrated by Mark Millicent, a US-based British illustrator.
'The Adventures of Bibble Brick' tells the story of the pebble 'Bibble' who leaves the beach to see for himself how it is to live on shore. Here he ends up in the entourage of a price fighter, where he makes new friends and fights against the bad guys.
The story is still wonderfully inappropriate for younger children with its boxing theme, drunken night club scenes and a very sexy spider. It is not your ordinary bedtime story, but both young and old Slade fans are sure to love it, especially as the observant reader will be able to spot some points of similarity between the main characters and the members of the original Slade!
If you wish to buy it from a bookstore, they should be able to order it for you. Simply supply the store with Amazon's provided ISBN number, which is B0BFV26SN4.
