Gary Northfield

Breaking through from the burgeoning British Small Press scene, Gary Northfield has been writing and drawing kids comics as a proper job since 2002. Famous for his crazy (and creator-owned!) Beano character, Derek the Sheep – a collection of which was published in hardback by Bloomsbury Children's Books (Booktrust Booked Up Picture Book choice 2009 and featured in 1001 Comics To Read Before You Die), he has also created comics for National Geographic Kids Magazine (National Geographic Special Recognition Award 2012), The Phoenix, The Dandy, The DFC, Horrible Histories Magazine, Horrible Science Magazine and The Magical World Of Roald Dahl. Gary loves dinosaurs and one day hopes that, with the profits from this book, he can build a time machine so he can go visit the jolly fellows and see them with his very own eyeballs.

From celebrated author and illustrator Gary Northfield comes the exciting, hilarious and action-packed second title in this brilliant chapter book series, brimming with Roman facts.

After the huge success of Rumble with the Romans!, celebrated author and illustrator Gary Northfield creates another brilliantly fast-paced, funny and utterly bonkers adventure for Julius Zebra and his hapless pals to go on. Emperor Hadrian has one last favour to ask of the gladiator animals before he will grant them their greatest wish – freedom. They must go to the far-off and strange land of Britain to win over the crowds of his empire. But this will be no happy-go-lucky holiday ... Instead of buckets and spades, our stripy hero and his friends will need all their powers and wits about them if they're going to survive their most wild and rebellious opponents yet. Cram-packed with jokes and bursting with action, this is a hilarious romp and mad-cap introduction to Roman Britain.
