Synopsis
When Bailey moves to a dull grey neighbourhood with his wonderfully unusual family, he doesn’t expect much—until a mysterious letter invites him to join the Scribbleboy Fan Club. The only other member is Ziggy Fuzz, a boy on a mission to keep the legend of Scribbleboy alive—the mysterious artist whose wild, colourful scribbles once brought life to the concrete streets. As Bailey gets caught up in the adventure, the scribbles begin to reappear… and the search for the artist leads to a surprising discovery: Scribbleboy was never a boy at all.
