Each book continues the adventures.
From a parent: If your child gets bored with reading, you might want to try this series. It is great for girls and boys alike. There is non-stop action to hold their attention throughout the whole book. Every chapter is a cliff-hanger...they won't be able to put it down until the book is finished! My son has ADHD, and I always had a hard time getting him to finish a book, but these books held his attention from the first page to the end. We love these books! Finally, my son says he loves to read!
I dare you to try pre-reading this book and be able to put it down after just one chapter.
About the author: One of twelve children, Justin grew up on a farm in Otaki, New Zealand. He wrote his first book, a ten page cartoon about his pet turtle, Bubble, when he was nine years old. His next cartoon was about Moriarty, his guinea pig, and filled a complete exercise book. When he was eleven, Justin began writing his first novel, but conked out after 35 pages.
