About this listen

When Alice Mistlethwaite is shipped off to boarding school in Scotland, it's nothing like she imagines.

Run by the mysterious Major, there are no punishments, and the students are more likely to be taught about body painting or extreme survival than maths or English!

Then Alice's dad goes missing, and she must run away to find him. Can she persuade her new friends to help? So begins an epic quest across wild Scottish highlands and islands, where the children will face danger and excitement at every turn.

We loved the forming of a really firm friendship and all the adventure! We also liked the Scottish setting, amd island travels.

We'd recommend this to all children!

A story which lifted our hearts, it was beautifully written and narrated by Angela Ness perfectly.
It talked about the importance of friendship and love,
It also said about the beautiful landscape of Scotland, and how nature is a stunning thing.

There was a minute where a man with a gun was running after the children, and shot at them, he did miss but we thought we should just mention it. There was also words like: idiot and stupid used by the children frequently, but apart from that it was a stunning story.

Wonderful
