ST IMACULATE'S SCHOOL FOR THE GIFTED
to Draconis Hall
for the Great Fossil Hunt
Jack is very excited when he learns that this year's school trip is a visit to the seaside to hunt for fossils. And even better - there's going to be a prize for the best find, which is he desperate to win!
Unfortunately, his best friend Picklewitch is not impressed, until she discovers the local Sea Wizard, whose secret lair is hiding the biggest treasure of all . . .
A chuckle-filled story. -- BookTrust
Absolutely whizz-carking... the kind of charming story that has the perfect mix of playfulness and peculiarity and will have you begging for its next! -- The Reader Teacher
