AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Miss Mary-Kate Martin might be anxious, but she's not scared of monsters. Travelling the globe with her famous archaeologist mother, Mary-Kate helps solve legendary problems in this fun fantasy adventure suitable for fans of the Travelling Bookshop or the Magnolia Moon series.

'There are those that hunt monsters to harm them and there are those that hunt monsters to help them. Which one are you?

'Dressed in sparkly red shoes and carrying her strawberry-scented notebook, Mary-Kate is accompanying her archaeologist mother to the tranquil English countryside to investigate some interesting bones found in an old well. But once they arrive, they realise that the village of Woolington is not as peaceful as it seems. Mysterious noises, earth tremors and a terrifying legend have the locals frightened.

'Could there be any truth in the myth of the beastly worm who lives in the ancient well? And if so, why would it return? Mary-Kate might be anxious but she is not afraid to get to the bottom of this monstrous mystery.

'A delightful fantasy-adventure from the award-winning and bestselling author of Lenny's Book of Everything and Dragon Skin, with lively line illustrations by Freda Chiu.  (Publication summary)
