Description
An action-packed, sugar-fuelled adventure by Waterstones Book of the Month author, Clare Povey.
The Midnight Sweet Factory combines the whimsy of Wonka with the excitement of Spy Kids in a deliciously dangerous, mouth-watering mystery.
When Flo and Joseph Wanderday unwrap a Midnight Treats gobstopper, they're expecting to find a sugary sweet, not a mysterious message that kickstarts the adventure of a lifetime:
HELP! Trapped in Midnight Forest. Come before it is too late.
With adventure in their hearts and sugar in their stomachs, the Wanderdays must find the Midnight Forest, journey through its sweet-themed tricks and trials, and face their greatest threat yet: sweet-factory workers who aren't in control of their own minds...

About the Author
Clare Povey is an author and the editorial and communities manager of the Writers' & Artists' website. She fell in love with France as a child, inspired by the stories in her local Redbridge & Dagenham Library, and by discovering the vocabulary in Usborne's First Thousand Words in French. The magic of speaking another language eventually led to her living and working in France, and writing her debut series, the Parisian-based The Unexpected Tale of Bastien Bonlivre.
