Alex Hallatt is a cartoonist and writer, who has lived in the UK, US, Australia, Spain and New Zealand (where she currently lives with her partner, Duncan). Her illustrated experiences of living in the coastal town of Hondarribia, Spain have been published in A Basque Diary. Being bullied at school is something Alex remembers vividly and she wouldn't want it to happen to anyone else. It inspired her first chapter book for 8-12 year olds: FAB (Friends Against Bullying) Club. FAB Club was a big hit with kids and the sequels: FAB Club 2 - Friends Against Cyberbullying and FAB Club 3 - The Big Match are out now. Alex is also the creator of Arctic Circle, a syndicated comic strip, distributed worldwide by King Features. It is about three penguins who have emigrated to the Arctic and has an underlying environmental theme. Her tongue-in-cheek single panel comic, Human Cull, appears on GoComics.com and the best of them are found in the bumper Book of Culls. Doodle Diary is another panel running on GoComics.com and includes Alex's New Zealand Diary and Reasons to Be Cheerful. Alex's preschool book, Hoover the Hungry Dog, features a greedy yellow dog who first appeared in a website about lunch. The website is no more, but Hoover was too fun a character to disappear with it. Alex also illustrates books for other publishers, including Walter Foster, Hachette Livre and Summersdale. More of her cartoons can be seen at www.alexhallatt.com, where you can sign up to her illustrated epistle to see what she is working on now.

FAB Club 2 – Friends Against Cyberbullying - Alex Hallatt
Chapter One
A FAB Summer
It was the long summer holidays and the FAB club met every day at their new clubhouse on the lake. If it was dry, they usually played games like 50-50 block home, or French cricket. If it was wet, they stayed inside and read comics, books and magazines, or played games.
fab club insideThey took turns to bring lunch. Most of them would bring sandwiches made by their parents, but Trevor enjoyed making the meals himself. Sausage rolls, felafel and salad pittas, carrots, celery and corn chips with three types of dips, and all sorts of other things he had read in cookbooks or seen online.
Trevor watching cooking showSome days he got up early and baked. He made muffins, flapjacks, sticky cinnamon swirls, custard-filled doughnuts. One day, he even made chocolate éclairs. Ruth said they were the best things she had ever eaten. Trevor blushed bright red and didn’t make them again, because he was afraid they would never be as good. Trevor loved cooking. The only thing he liked more was hanging out with his friends at the clubhouse.
The members of the FAB club were never bored. They put their phones in their pockets, or on the shelf by the door. What they were doing in the FAB club was usually more interesting than whatever was on their phones. Sometimes the phones would beep, but they tried to ignore them, unless it was getting close to home time.
TobyExcept for Toby. He was always on his phone, even whilst they were playing cards.Toby put down his cards and fished in his pocket.
Ignore it, Toby,
said Jake. It’s your turn.
It’s a message from Mum. I have to answer it, otherwise she will call me.
Toby tapped away on the screen.
Come on, Toby. It’s your go,
said Jake.
The phone beeped. Toby tapped. The phone beeped again. Toby tapped.
This is driving me crazy!
Jake slammed down his cards, grabbed Toby’s phone and replied to Toby’s mum’s texts.
Mum: Hello, darling!
Toby: Hello, Mumsie-poo.
Mum: How are you?
Toby: I’m just splendid.
Mum: What are you doing?
Toby: Losing a game.
Mum: Don’t be late for dinner.
Then Jake wrote:
Bleurgh!And sent it.
Toby grabbed the phone back. What did you write? Aaargh! She’s going to kill me, you doofus!
You shouldn’t have done that,
said Ravi.
He shouldn’t be spending so much time looking at his phone,
said Jake, looking back at his cards.
Toby tapped away furiously on the phone.
Toby: Sorry, Mum.
That wasn’t me.
Mum: I hope not!
Toby: See you later.
Mum: Okay. Xxxxxxx
Toby: Xxx
Toby put the phone down and glared at Jake. Jake grinned as Toby looked back at his cards. He put down a seven. Pick up seven, unless you’ve got a seven.
Ha!
said Jake. Finally!
He put down three sevens. Pick up another seven and another seven and another seven and I’m out!
Not again!
said Ruth. You have all the luck, Jake.
Hey, the rain’s stopped,
said Ravi. Let’s go out in the boat and see if we can catch any fish.
The FAB didn’t have any fishing rods, but they had jam jars on strings. They moulded the bread from their sandwiches into balls and squished them into the bottom of the jars to take out on the boat.
FAB in boatcrayfishThey usually caught minnows and threw them all back. This time, something else came up in Toby’s jam jar.
It’s a crayfish,
said Ruth, tipping it out on the prow of the boat. It’s a crustacean, like a crab.
Ugh,
said Jake, it’s ugly. Throw it back.
Let’s keep it as a pet,
said Toby.
It’s cruel to keep things cooped up,
said Trevor, and crayfish taste delicious when you cook them.
That’s even crueller,
said Nancy.
But you eat other animals,
said Ravi.
Cut it out, you lot,
said Ruth. "While you’ve been arguing,
