Our Book of the Month for ages 9+ is The Treasure Hunters, a twisty new mystery from critically acclaimed author Lisa Thompson. Vincent is quiet and invisible at school so when forced to take part in an outdoor activity weekend he’s counting down the seconds until he can return home. Things take a turn though when one of his classmates reveals a secret: she’s convinced there’s pirate treasure buried deep within a nearby mountain. Suddenly the boring trip is an exciting adventure, complete with an unscrupulous thief hot on the trail and intent on stealing the loot for themselves! Can the Treasure Hunters work together to stop them?
The Treasure Hunters is a funny and moving page-turner, perfect for fans of Frank Cottrell Boyce’s Millions and 80’s classic The Goonies. It’s also a celebration of diversity and inclusivity featuring a sensitive depiction of a hero with dyspraxia. Lisa Thompson is the bestselling author of the modern classic The Goldfish Boy, and this is yet another heart-warming story which tackles tough issues.
