It was a surprise and a delight to see that The Times has selected our Murder on the Safari Star to be their Children’s Book of the week. It is hard to get any kind of review coverage for children’s books, and so these spaces are usually only given to stand-alone books or the first book in a series. You almost never get a review for a book that is the third in a series. I certainly didn’t expect any reviews for this book, although I have to agree with Alex, the reviewer, I believe this is our best adventure yet.
