Anisha, Accidental Detective: Beach Disaster

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

There's sabotage on the school trip, in the seventh hilarious case in the award-winning Anisha, Accidental Detective series!

It's finally time for our Year 6 residential trip, and we're off to the beach! I can't wait for three days of fun with my friends, learning about animal habitats, and being free from grown-ups. We might even win a prize for our project!

Except, Granny Jas has turned up as a surprise chaperone, and she won't stop showing everyone my embarrassing baby photos. And now someone is messing with our habitat project—breaking things and dumping litter on the beach. Someone needs to stop them before they ruin all our hard work. Looks like a case for me, Anisha, accidental eco-detective!

About the Author

Serena Patel is the author of the Anisha, Accidental Detective series which won the Sainsbury's Children's Book Award for Fiction. She lives in the West Midlands with her family and believes all children deserve to feel seen in the stories they read and that books are an important tool for empathy. When she's not writing Serena enjoys watching movies, reading and eating cake. Chocolate cake preferred. Emma McCann is a freelance illustrator, sporadic painter/print maker, occasional cake baker, and regular mess maker. She lives in Cornwall and works from an attic studio where her ideas are scribbled, Wacom'd, and Photoshopped into existence. In her spare time, Emma undertakes scientific research into Cornwall's best cream tea and takes it very, very seriously.
