The hilarious dark humour of this cautionary tale and especially its dramatic ending will delight brave listeners. Cutting off his classmates plaits, sticking drawing pins on the teacher’s chair – mean Billy Brute terrorises children and teachers alike in all the schools he spends time in. But when St Lemons agree to take him in they have an ultimate way of changing his behaviour: Miss Wanda is summoned!
Miss Wanda is a teacher with a difference. She has remarkably big eyes and ears and feet which are also surprisingly hairy. She teaches den making, howling at the moon and chasing the classroom cat. But Miss Wanda also has another side to her. And Billy Brute soon finds out exactly how far she is prepared to go to stop him!
After Billy Brute burns down his old school - and gets away with it - his parents have to find him a new one. St Lemons say they'll take him, but little does Billy know that St Lemons have a secret weapon: Enter Miss Wanda . . .

Her glasses are spectacular. Her dress so prim and neat. But what big eyes, and what big ears… And what big hairy feet!
Perhaps Billy won't get away with EVERYTHING after all.
With gloriously gothic illustrations from bestselling Chris Mould, and an alternative back-to-school message, this fabulously dark tale is perfect for parents looking for the picture book equivalent of Roald Dahl's twisted tales.
Issy Emeney has been writing for many years, and is a full-time folk musician and songwriter. She combines her musical life with painting, and writing for children. Billy Brute, Whose Teacher Was a Werewolf, is Issy's debut picture book, with another in the Twisted Tales for Devilish Darlings series, with follow.
