Candy Jar scoops rights to republish first four books in Lawrence's Jiggy McCue series

Cardiff-based Indie publisher Candy Jar Books has snapped up the rights to republish the first four books in Michael Lawrence’s Jiggy McCue series, which includes The Toilet of Doom. Publishing co-ordinator and head of marketing Keren Williams acquired world UK rights, including print, e-book and audio, directly from the author.

The publisher said: "From body-swapping toilets to evil underpants, poltergoose mayhem and whatever else Jiggy can get himself tangled up in, every new edition will deliver the same laugh-out-loud, stomach-twisting, slightly gross, totally brilliant energy that made the series a playground legend. Kids today (and the slightly older kids who grew up with him) can get ready to cheer, groan, and snort with delight as Jiggy McCue continues to wreak havoc – one hilarious disaster at a time!"
