Jungle Tangle: A Abbie Hartley Adventure

By Debbie Thomas

Following a hair-raising adventure last summer, Abbie Hartley can’t wait to join her friend Perdita on the trip of a lifetime. Their destination? The Amazon jungle. Their mission? To find the lost wife of their friend Fernando. There’s only one problem. Fernando and his wife are shrunken heads … and the Amazon jungle is huge. Oh, and another one. Squashy Grandma insists on coming, with her shopping bag on wheels and her pet wig. Oh, and just one more. Abbie’s arch-enemy Dr Hubris Klench, burger-on-legs and villain extraordinaire, is lurking in the undergrowth with some very wicked tricks up his very wide sleeve.

'The story, interwoven with a wacky cast of characters, romps through'...' with exuberance and sparkling dialogue.' - Mary Arrigan, 'Irish Examiner'

'From the first paragraph to the last, this is a laugh-aloud read for any age, with compelling plot and well-rounded characters.' - Inis Magazine
