Ten-year-old Scarlet is logical and organised. Her younger brother Ashton is affable and carefree. Both are sorcerers, though neither of them know it yet. Being ordinary is perfectly acceptable. Unless you have a secret. Like, say, being able to control an element at will. Scarlet and Ashton’s uneventful summer gets shoved into overdrive when the Guardian of the Nexus Tribe turns up and announces they have elemental magic in their blood. Before they even begin to understand what this means, their mother’s rare, expensive book goes missing and Scarlet and Ashton vow to find the missing treasure with the help of Guardian Nicodemus Maximus and their newfound powers. But someone they know is a thief and a liar, someone who will stop at nothing to keep the coveted book. Scarlet and Ashton McCracken’s ordinary lives are about to become extraordinary. Perfect for young fans of magic and imagination, Seuss Sleuths explores themes of family, friendship, mystery and bravery in an enchanted way. The first in a delightfully bewitching new series, Seuss Sleuths is sure to captivate young middle-grade readers – and their endearingly pesky younger brothers and sisters alike!
