Overview
The Daisy and the Trouble Collection gathers ten of Kes Gray's funniest chapter books into one bright paperback set. Daisy is a big-hearted, endlessly curious girl whose everyday outings, from fishing trips to Halloween nights, school sports days and money-making schemes, spiral into gloriously funny chaos. Written with punchy dialogue and a breezy pace, these stories suit kids building reading confidence beyond picture books. Each stand-alone adventure keeps Daisy's warm, witty voice front and center, making this bundle a reliable, giggle-packed choice for family bookshelves, classroom libraries and independent readers.

About the Books
Across all ten titles, Kes Gray places ordinary childhood moments, a fishing trip, a Halloween night, a school sports day, under Daisy's uniquely mischievous magnifying glass, turning small mishaps into laugh-out-loud escapades. Daisy tackles maggots on a riverbank, a spooky Halloween encounter, big questions about growing up, a memorable zoo outing, a house full of kittens, a giant-sized wish, the world's most disliked nuts, a string of local burglaries, an expensive scooter dream and a competitive sports day, all with the same fearless curiosity and comic timing. Illustrated throughout and written in short, punchy chapters, the books keep newly independent readers turning pages without feeling overwhelmed. Gray's dialogue-driven style, honed across decades of writing for children, gives Daisy a distinct, believable voice that resonates with real kids navigating friendship, family and the occasional bit of trouble. Because each book stands alone, children can read the set in any order, dip into a single quick story before bed, or binge through several titles in a weekend, and still enjoy a cohesive, familiar cast including best friend Gabby. The collection works as a first foray into chapter books for a strong younger reader or as light, funny relief reading for an older child who wants stories that don't take themselves too seriously.
