I genuinely think this is my favourite book out of the whole series! Having both crews united was so much fun! 

The villain, Scarlett Sauvage, is such an interesting character - especially for a middlegrade. Having discussions on both wildlife and heritage conservation is so refreshing and makes for an excellent discussion.

Although I'd like to be a part of the Jungle Cats Explorer Club, sign me up to live on the Blowfish! Or to be a kraken whisperer! Or even to live inside Alex Bell's head, as her imagination is out of this world!
