Description
Sometimes the real treasures are the people you meet along the way!


The plan was very simple, Thief 1, Thief 2 and Thief 3 would dig a tunnel and rob a bank at night. They even took an excavation course with the best teachers.

As it turns out, the thieves have a lot of unexpected skills, but digging tunnels to banks is not one of them. Their tunnels do lead to some very interesting places though...

Critical Reviews

"Preposterous fun for the savvy young reader or read-aloud audience." The Horn Book


"Silly situations abound making this a great readaloud with downright kid-friendly art." Betsy Bird, Fuse #8


"Joaquin Camp's colourful marker illustrations are youthful, simple and all kinds of wonderful.... There is oodles of visual information here to support the text and to add extra layers of meaning. It is also a shining example of how simple illustrative techniques can convey great emotion and movement. The text is also short and snappy, giving it a crisp wittiness." ReadPlus


"The book is sure to encourage lots of discussion about the wrongs of bank robbery, about friendship, about innate skills and about the important things of life." CBCA Reading Time
