Rosemary 2: The Ice Pop and Fire

By Miina Supinen & Anni Nykänen

The wild adventures of the Cooking Club continue – this time inside the volcano. 

Madeleine, Michelin, Slice and Bebe travel back to the wacky magical world of Humpia. The wildest water park of the century, glittering fish people and a fire-breathing volcano barbecue await the group. The Cooking Club embarks on an even wilder adventure to rescue Humpia.

The Rosemary series is a whimsical and colourful adventure for fans of illustrated storytelling, with a wacky plot, energetic dialogue, mysterious creatures and surprises at every turn.

Madeleine, Michelin, Slice and Bebe are the four members of the Cooking Club, who are taken on headless adventures with a kitchen witch Rosemary and her magical pepper mill. It does not matter where these characters come from, but their noses are always seeking out the next fantastical journey. With light and fun text and illustrations to carry the story forward, Rosemary encourages reluctant readers as much as comic fans to pick up the book.
