Review
Pearly Woe is a junior adventurologist. She comes from a long line of adventurologists.
But suddenly her parents have gone missing and she has received a strange message for help from them. To add to her woes her pet Pig has been pig-napped too. Pearly must act fast to save them all!
She finds herself a stowaway on an icebreaking ship headed for Antarctica, only to find out that the horrible Ms Woods, a big game hunter, is in charge of the expedition and she has evil intentions!
Pearly will need all of her cunning and intelligence as a junior adventurologist to save the day… but will that be enough?
This is a terrific junior novel, suitable to any reader aged 8-12. I hope that it is the first in a series!
