Our brave young detectives—Farah, Amelia, Mohammad, and Sam—spot a man at the beach using some intriguing tools to dig around the rocks. Their curiosity leads them to uncover what the man was examining: a bone set in stone.

Embark on this adventure with the Detective gang as they meet a vet and a palaeontologist, who help them explore more about evolution, fossils, and scientific research.

Interactive elements include:

  • Search and find clues in the illustrations
  • Help the kids complete the full skeleton by placing the bones in the right place
  • Gather crucial information from panels about palaeontology and fossils
  • Match the fossil to the correct animal skeleton
  • Help the palaeontologist name the creature

Through interactive adventures filled with facts, brain-teasing puzzles, and lively illustrations, Kid Detectives: The Strange Case of the Fossilised Bone imparts STEM knowledge in an innovative way, inspiring a love for the subject. Each story in the series entices readers to solve puzzles, find clues, crack secret codes, and uncover mysteries.
