Story5 out of 5 stars 3
Selby hates homework. She would rather watch TV - anything to escape the tedium of school, her parents' bookshop and small-town busybodies. So Selby didn't plan to read Hamlet. She certainly never planned to meet him. This novel transports Selby, and the listener, into the cold and crime-ridden play itself. Here she meets Hamlet: heavy with grief, the young prince is overthinking and over everything. Selby can relate. But unlike Hamlet, Selby isn't afraid of making decisions.

Andy and Terry have a new book to write, but there's a problem. A BIG problem. Well, quite a few big problems actually.... On a hill not too far away there is a tree. And in that tree there is a tree house. And in that tree house there is a bowling alley, a see-through swimming pool, a tank full of sharks, a giant rope swing, a library full of comics, a secret underground laboratory, a vegetable vaporiser and a free marshmallow-dispensing machine.

Friday Barnes is amazing
Dear R.A sprat,
I think this book is outstanding and after listing to it I bought the whole series to read. I adored all of them.
You use great details. Maybe you could make some more audio books of the second and third. You are my favourite author.

Absolutely brilliant road trip read
My 11 year old daughter and I listened to this on a recent road trip.
The storyline was fantastic, and the humour had us both laughing out loud.
At just 4 hours in length it was perfectly timed for the younger attention span, moving quickly and holding interest at every detective turn.
Highly recommend!

Best stories ever, great for all the family
My 9 and 5 year olds love these stories and we search out everything RA Spratt all the time. Great adventures, great humour, fantastic vocabulary. The author narrates herself so you are getting the full experience. She can read a little fast, so we tend to listen on 0.8 speed which solves that problem, so no faults to find. Looking forward to the next installment.
