hello and welcome

Young Rascal is the home of a creative design, animation and illustration studio and book publisher.

We are passionate about artistry and craftsmanship in design, with over 10 years of experience in graphic design, website design, brand development and animation.

More lately, Young Rascal has become a new publisher of books for children and young adults: We think that the world needs children who are ready to question adults. So we’d like our books to be adventurous, thought provoking and a bit cheeky. Let’s see where the journey takes us.

how it all began
Combining the unique design skills of Rich and a passionate book-world knowledge of Vicky, an idea was hurriedly sketched out and, after a swift delivery, bounced across the computer screen in a small black & white animated movie.

A movie that kick-started Young Rascal into being.

about this book

Greece, 1885 and Archibald Cherrytree has just unearthed what could be the archaeological find of the age - a fragment of the Rosetta Stone.

In a breathless pursuit Archie races across Victorian Europe, dodging power crazed archaeologists, deadly henchmen and God-made automatons before crossing into the world of the Gods themselves. All the while, Archie's assistant Hamish is taken by a time-travelling superhero on a giddy mission to help find the lost Seed of Creation, encountering the God of Fire and the Queen of England along the way.

How will Archie escape this chase and return the Seed of Creation to its rightful owner?
