Entertaining antics and skullduggery abound in the book that inspired Laika Studio's animated film The Boxtrolls, in theaters September 26, 2014! Welcome to Ratbridge. But beware--for there is skulduggery afoot. Young Arthur has fallen foul of the appalling outlaw, Snatcher, and is trapped alone in the town with every way home sealed. Meanwhile Snatcher and his men are working tirelessly in secret on a fiendish and dastardly plan to destroy the entire town.

With the help of some friendly boxtrolls and cabbageheads, some quirkly townspeople, and the rats and pirates from the Ratbridge Nautical Laundry, can Arthur thwart Snatcher's evil plans and find his way home?

Alan Snow

Alan Snow is an award-winning children's book illustrator and designer who has worked on more than 160 books. His novel, Here Be Monsters (OUP, 2005),was made into an animated film, The Boxtrolls, which spent several weeks at the top of the UK box office in 2015.

Fascinated with 'how things work', Alan turned his attentions towards the kitchen, acquiring sophisticated equipment such as vacuum machine, centrifuge, freeze dryer and shock chiller, and has developed his own culinary 'lab'. He has since consulted for The Ethicurian restaurant, and is in the process of launching a boutique ice cream parlour in the Cotswolds, with a nod to Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory.

Alan now runs workshops and courses for professional chefs and cooks, and his gastronomic experiments are due to be filmed for a documentary.
