One night Sam notices a tiny spaceship in the cabbage patch. Out of it steps a little alien called Splodge.

Sam is miserable, because his parents have got lost on a trip to the moon and he has been left in the care of the horrible Hilda Hardbottom. Splodge is a wonderful new friend for him — especially since he knows how to make Sam invisible.

How Sam uses his invisibility to scare the pants off Hilda Hardbottom, and how he finds that being braver makes things better, is a wonderful story and a very funny one.

The audio of the million-selling book - Pete McCarthy's hilarious journey in search of his Irish roots.

McCarthy's tale of his hilarious trip around Ireland has gained thousands of fans all over the world.

Pete was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father and spent happy summer holidays in Cork. Years later, reflecting on the many places he has visited as a travel broadcaster, Pete admits that he feels more at home in Ireland than anywhere. To find out whether this is due to rose-coloured spectacles or to a deeper tie with the country of his ancestors, Pete sets off on a trip around Ireland and discovers that it has changed in surprising ways.
