PAPERBACK
Author & Illustrator: Sheena Dempsey
Celebrate World Book Day 2026 with everyone’s favourite time-travelling penguins in PABLO AND SPLASH: THE CASTLE QUEST - a hilarious mini graphic novel adventure perfect for readers aged 6-9 years.
When Splash hears there’s an unlimited supply of fishy snacks in medieval England, she doesn’t waste a second. It’s straight into the time machine - with best pal Pablo being dragged along by the flipper!
But medieval England isn’t quite what they expected. Instead of endless treats, they find sheep, a pig… and a very grumpy farmer. With no snacks in sight, there’s only one place left to search: the castle. Will Pablo and Splash discover a feast fit for penguins? Or is it time to say “good knight” and head home?
Packed with bright, full-colour illustrations, fast-paced panels and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, this short adventure is ideal for emerging readers building confidence. With its energetic humour and comic-style storytelling, it’s perfect for fans of quirky animal chaos and graphic novel fun.
