A fast-paced junior fiction adventure starring a plucky new heroine that has to face her fears to save her parents, her friend, and the day!

Pearly Woe is a worrier. She worries about everything, especially that she’ll never be brave enough to become a member of the top-secret group of stealth adventurers – The Adventurologists’ Guild. Pearly also has a special talent – she can talk to animals. Her favourite animal to talk to is her pet pig, called Pig. But with her parents missing, Pig pig-napped, and Pearly a stowaway on an icebreaker heading for Antarctica, Pearly’s worries just got REAL.

In Pearly and Pig and the Great Hairy Beast, Pearly must overcome her fears and find the courage to save the ones she loves, in a thrilling journey that will take her to the icy landscapes of Antarctica.
