Bumpkin Books are very proud of the Nurse Diddy first book and hope to be publishing the next one soon.
On Scrobble Farm, Jake wakes up one morning covered top to toe in spots! Granny Scrobble immediately phones BetterQuick Surgery where Nancy the receptionist explains she has had many calls with the same problem that morning. Nurse Diddy and her ‘helpers’, namely Gongo the guinea pig and Ruko the rook, are called in to help make the children feel better. The magical Nurse Diddy Bag provides the necessary piece of equipment to sort the problem out. Nurse Diddy reassures the patients and gives them some fabulous anti-itch cream and some BetterQuick medicine. However, a few days later, even though the children feel better, they cannot go back to school as they are still infectious. They get bored – very bored and that is when the trouble starts! That is, until Nurse Diddy has the fabulous idea of a Chicken Pox Party on Stan’s train…!

About the author
Libby Weaver has lived in Oxfordshire for the past 27 years. Working as an editor for Scholastic’s educational division for many years, Libby nurtured her love of children’s books and education. Although writing since the age of 12, this is the first book she has made available for publishing.
Nurse Diddy was born when Libby’s mother was ill, and her then 3 year old daughter met many of the nurses who were helping. It developed with many routine trips to nurses for her daughter (eg vaccines, broken thumbs!), and seeing the world of health was of great importance to, but not always understood by, little people!
Libby collaborated with Elyse Whittaker-Paek to create the illustrations on the book. Elyse is an Australian born illustrator, working in LA and has worked for Nickelodeon and Warner Bros on TV shows such as Dora the Explorer, and Oswald the Octopus. She is a very talented artist and is now focusing on illustrating children's books.
