Funny Fables & Fairy Tales - Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. (Say no nore)

Welcome to Nutsville‑sur‑Forest — a village so peculiar it makes Wonderland look organised. A place where the baker sings to his bread, the blacksmith argues with his anvil, and the Mayor rules with a liquorice stick she nibbles whenever she’s thinking. Or stressed. Or bored. Or awake.
This is not a children’s book. This is a collection of mischievous, magical tales for grownups who never quite grew up — the ones who still believe in wonder, whimsy, and the occasional mythical creature with a questionable attitude.
Inside these pages, you’ll meet the unforgettable residents of the whispering forest:
✨ Trev the Truffle Pig — a stout fellow whose snout can sniff out treasure, trouble, or yesterday’s lunch from half a mile away. He runs a stall called Trev’s Truffle Treats, selling earthy delights and causing earthy chaos.
✨ Spike the Hedgehog — prickly in both personality and appearance, forever muttering about squirrels stealing his snacks.
✨ Mags the Magpie — dramatic enough to out‑perform the entire Royal Shakespeare Company, with a sparkle addiction and a talent for finding trouble. And shiny things. But mainly trouble.
Together, they form the Three Amigos — a trio who never go looking for adventure… but adventure always finds them.
From the moment Mags “accidentally” borrows the Mayor’s jewellery (“Nudge, nudge, wink, wink — say no more”), chaos erupts. A squirrel with delusions of grandeur steals a diamond ring. Trev’s nose leads them into muddy mayhem. Spike faints more often than is medically advisable. And Mags? Well, she false‑faints into puddles and pretends to drown for dramatic effect.
And that’s only the beginning.
You’ll also encounter:
🦜 Pete the Paranoid Parrot, who becomes the village’s unofficial Town Crier and launches a full‑scale espionage mission against the Mayor’s cat, Pussy Pimpernel.
🧌 Ticklebottom the Ticklish Troll, whose legendary giggle is so powerful it makes the trees lean in to listen — and so desirable that someone wants to steal it.
🧜‍♀️ Miranda the Mermaid of Mischief, Sparkle the Cupcake‑Obsessed Unicorn, Dizzy the Dancing Dragon, Furball the Friendly Yeti, and more magical misfits who bring mayhem, warmth, and laughter to every page.
The stories are whimsical, cheeky, and delightfully ridiculous — filled with magical forests, gossiping hedgerows, glowing mushrooms, and characters who behave with the emotional maturity of toddlers and the dramatic flair of opera singers.
As your manuscript says: “Nutsville‑sur‑Forest is not an ordinary village. In fact, it’s about as ordinary as a teapot wearing tap shoes.”
Each tale is a playful nudge to the reader — a reminder that magic doesn’t disappear when we grow up. It simply gets sillier.
Funny Fables & Fairy Tales is perfect for adults who want fantasy with humour, heart, and a generous helping of mischief. Whether you’re here for talking animals, enchanted forests, or pure comedic chaos, these stories will make you smile, snort, and occasionally wonder why your own village isn’t twinned with Fruit‑de‑la‑Toot.
Pour a cuppa (or something stronger), settle in, and let the mayhem begin.
Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more.
