Mabel sets out to prove that an eccentric new hotel guest is really a supervillain in this witty storybook about an intergenerational friendship.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThere's a strange new guest at the Mermaid Hotel -- a very old lady with a growly voice, bags stuffed with jewelry and coins and curiosities, and a beady-eyed pet tortoise. Mabel, whose parents run the hotel, is suspicious. Who is this \"Madame Badobedah\" (it rhymes with \"Oo la la\") who has come to stay indefinitely and never has any visitors? To find out, Mabel puts on her spy costume and observes the new guest. Conclusion? She must be a secret supervillain hiding out from the law. The grown-ups think Madame Badobedah is a bit rude -- and sad -- but when she invites \"dahlink\" Mabel for a cup of forbidden tea and a game of pirates, the two begin a series of imaginary adventures together, and Mabel realizes that first impressions can sometimes be very wrong. Conjuring two quirky heroines that young readers will love, Sophie Dahl adds her talented voice to a grand tradition of books that celebrate the alliance of the old and young in the face of humdrum adults, while Lauren O'Hara's illustrations are as packed with intriguing details as Madame Badobedah's suitcases.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sophie Dahl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1536210226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781536210224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Walker Books Us\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.50h x 8.50w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e509061 \/ Madame Badobedah\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/15\/2020 pg. 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2020 pg. 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/09\/2020","brand":"Sophie Dahl","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44050786713855,"sku":"9781536210224","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dffde45e-faa3-4415-a978-e505afe54e30.jpg?v=1685009238","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/madame-badobedah-sophie-dahl-9781536210224","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
