Gully. Pollo believes she has a major scoop on her hands in her hunt for the Graffiti
kid. But is Will the new boy going to
get in the way of Pollo and her big mystery?
Kids who love
to read mystery and adventure will enjoy this book. This book is best for the
older kids about ten years and above.
I am not a big
fan of reading and I joined Kidz Review Krew so that I would force myself to
read more. But even though I don’t
usually enjoy reading, I loved this book so why not give it a try.
Thank you to Fremantle

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I was a big
fan of Enid Blyton’s Famous Five mystery series and of Rider Haggard’s
adventures set in Africa. When life proved frustratingly safe, I imagined
intrigue and danger in the everyday. (Everyone does that, right?) Although I’d
always loved story-writing, it took twenty-odd years of study, travel, work and
parenting before I got down to it seriously. From a career in non-fiction, it
was fun writing stuff in which anything was possible. After a few community
courses, I returned eventually to the University of WA, where post-grad studies
morphed into the PhD in creative writing I’m working on now.
I live near
the ocean and Reabold Hill bushland with family, a cat, some bossy possums who
live in the roof and the ghost of a friendly old dog. Aside from writing, I
like to swim, kayak, take photos, hang out at lacrosse grounds and accost my
ukulele.
