It's supposed to be the WEDDING OF THE YEAR but it's tomorrow and it's looking like a "first-class disaster!

And now someone is messing with our habitat project - breaking things and dumping litter on the beach.Honestly, I just want to read my book, but there's NEVER any time to relax for Anisha, Accidental Detective.

Serena Patel is the author of the Anisha, Accidental Detective series which won the Sainsbury's Children's Book Award for Fiction. A laugh out loud tale of mishap, misbehaving grannies, grumpy neighbours and large, loving families. It is also a great book for British Indian girls who now have a central character in a book, that they can relate to. She needs to use her scientific skills of logic and deduction to track down Uncle Tony in time for his wedding.Anisha is always on the look out for ways to look after the world and when she enters a competition to look after the beach and things start to go wrong… it’s up to her (and her gang) to solve the puzzle! At Books2Door, we believe that reading is a fundamental skill that every child should have to help improve their vocabulary, grammar, and critical thinking skills. The holiday park's mascot, Delilah the duck, has been DESTROYED, and my new friend Cleo is everyone's number one suspect. Anisha's personality leaps off the page, completely realistic for a girl of her age and the various embarrassments caused by grown ups in her life that kids of that age can easily relate to.

The humour is deft, the dialogue great and Anisha’s multi-generational British Indian family is an inclusive and wonderful world to escape into.
