Ade Bowen, from Action Pussycat, launched his book at the Play Wild site on the Beach Lawns.

Ade's book is entitled, The Astounding Adventures Of Mr Bowns: The Laziest Man In The World.

During the launch, the books were stolen by a witch and young readers were challenged to work out six clues to win a free copy.

Ade said: "The owners of Play Wild kindly allowed us to take over their forest school site, and the weather was beautiful.

"We set up a tent for the witch, and the children and their adults had a great time searching for the clues and working them all out."

The book follows Mr Bowns and two children who become lost in the woods.

The children stray into a cottage and fail to come out, so Mr Bowns must find a way to rescue them using the least amount of effort.
