Book promotion, what if the books promoted themselves...

Book cover image

If books had to promote themselves:


Doodle Mayhem, that’s my name, it’s written across my front cover in colourful letters, with a couple of escaped characters climbing on them.

If that sparks your curiosity you can pick me up and flip me over (or hover over the front cover image or touch the screen).

On my back cover you’ll see an image of Eric looking perplexed at the beginning of his story, when he has no idea what’s going on, but he’s sure that the letters shouldn’t be rolling off the page.

And they definitely shouldn’t be getting thrown at him by… who can that be?

He tries to ignore the little figure standing in front of him, but is to prove impossible!
