    Welcome to the latest episode of Book Worms!

    First up, we’re making a splash with Sandy Fin: Operation Splash Landing, where
    Martin Stewart plunges us into an eco-adventure bursting with mystery, danger, and
    deep-sea secrets.

    Next, Jennifer Claessen bends time itself in Netta Becker and the Timeline Crime, a
    twisty time-travel mystery that’ll keep you guessing with every page turn.

    All hands-on deck, it’s time for Cruise Ship Kid, as Emma Swan whisks us away on a
    high-seas whodunnit packed with puzzles, suspects, and surprises at every turn.

    Closing the show is Clelia Castro-Malaspina with Girls with Goals, a powerful
    celebration of the unstoppable rise of women’s soccer.
