'Immensely, cheerily silly' Guardian'A thunderously good read, so funny and action packed. Children are going to love it!' Serena Patel, author of ANISHA, ACCIDENTAL DETECTIVEGrown an extra head and don't know why? Pocket money stolen by a green blob? Lost your peculiar pet? You need the Space Detectives! What seems like a simple case of a missing pet soon has the Space Detectives completely bamboozled! This is no ordinary pet - it's a synthpet, where owners mix in different animals to make a totally unique one-of-a-kind pet. The missing pet has the body and legs of a cat, a duck's bill, long rabbit-like ears and the scaly tail of a crocodile. A creature like that should be easy to spot, right? Not on Starville, the universe's biggest space station where every inhabitant looks different - it's like looking for a star in a galaxy. Where should our heroes Connor and Ethan even begin? Another out-of-this-world adventure awaits!

The faexie queen has banished banana slugs from Redwood Isle, and dead material buries the forest floor. Through a resulting tragedy, the banana slugs have an opportunity to return. Queen Elena Darkwing, however, has a plan for the detritus that will threaten the banana slugs and a faexie family living in an ancient stump: Burn the isle floor! Tara, a 12-year old, wingless faexie, must venture farther and higher than any faexie has to save her family and Redwood Isle.
