Anisha, Accidental Detective: Holiday Adventure by Serena Patel
Winner of The Week Junior Book Awards Children's Book of the Year: Younger Fiction
The Mistrys are off on holiday, in the fifth hilarious mystery in the award-winning Anisha, Accidental Detective series, from World Book Day 2026 author and illustrator team, Serena Patel and Emma McCann!
Pack your bags - we're off to a holiday camp!
Milo can't wait to see the wildlife, Manny's learning survival skills, and even Granny's going to have a go at archery. Honestly, I just want to read my book, but there's NEVER any time to relax for Anisha, Accidental Detective.
The holiday park's mascot, Delilah the duck, has been DESTROYED, and my new friend Cleo is everyone's number one suspect.
But I'm sure she's innocent, and I'm going to do whatever it takes to prove it. Let's hope we can find the real culprit, and QUACK the case!!
