Meet Zack. He’s trying to save Earth and his best friend from a galactic overlord. But Zack is officially The World's Worst Alien. This book by Alice Primmer is hilarious and packed with chaos. Perfect for fans of Tom Gates & David Solomons. Kids aged 8-12 will love it! @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social
I'm so excited to read this. The third installment of Jennifer Bell's Magicalia series, Storm of Chaos. I have had so many reluctant readers who are transfixed by magicores. This latest quest takes the heroes from the Galapagos islands to the rainforests of Borneo. #MGLit @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social
