High tide

- Reading
- Try reading together in short stretches, pausing when the group or a mystery develops. Invite your reader to make predictions, without needing to solve the secrets before the story does.
- Themes
- A group adventure shaped by mystery: Two children from London join two children from Cornwall and Larry in an adventure involving family secrets and danger. The story is presented as an adventure organised around mysteries and the formation of a group, rather than as informational coverage.
- Worth knowing
- The story includes intrigue and mortal danger involving children. If peril is a concern for your reader, consider whether they enjoy suspenseful adventures before beginning.
