This listing is for a triple set of rare Kernowland Books 1, 2 and 3 . These are numbered 76-100 out of 100, signed, lined, dated and doodled with a ship! Plus also included will be a rare poster and a letter of authenticity.
Jack Trelawny is clearly a fantastic author. Over the past few years since the nine book planned series began he has now gained a cult status. Based in Cornwall, Kernowland goes beyond your wildest of imaginations and yes it's actually self published!
The team at Doodled Books love the series so much we decided it was about time a rare and collectable set of doodled books were created. The result is a triple set of Book 1, Book 2 and Book 3 which have been numbered, signed, lined, dated and doodled.
So will this book get snapped up by a major publisher? Well only time will tell. There's definately plenty of scope for film.
Plus with Gardners the biggest book distributers in the UK tipping the book as the next big thing in children's books - exciting times are ahead.

Reviews
Children's Books of the Year 2006:
"... Jack Trelawny's Kernowland is about as good as they get... first rate... one of those little hardbacks that look so good on the shelf. The story takes its brother and sister protagonists to Cornwall and then through a magic cave to Kernowland where adventures ensue. Witty, scary and full of adventure the use of alternative versions of West Country landmarks in the imagined world is very clever and the environmental message a great one for kids."
