A brilliant middle grade read about beetles and bugs and how they change a boys life.
Darkus has to stay with his uncle Max as his dad has gone missing, but one day discovers a beetle that seems to understand him and this starts in motion an adventure to find his dad.
Darkus along with his new friends learn to love the beetles and make plans to solve the mystery.
Didn't expect to love this as much as I did, M G Leonard can make me love beetles and much as she did trains.
