When Aidan's mum suddenly disappears, Aidan and his best friend Charlotte set out on a dangerous adventure to find her. They track her to a murky research laboratory on the other side of the country, and there they find several other part-mythic-beast `freaks' all in the thrall of an evil scientist who is hell-bent on stealing their special powers for himself. Aidan and Charlotte have to find a way to rescue Dr Krinksky's victims from the horrors of his lab and bring his mum back home safe and sound.Trade ReviewPart heart-warming family drama (my favourite scenes are between Aidan and his mother), part rip-roaring kidnapping yarn, this story is a clever blend of realism and fantasy for children who like adventure tales with lashings of humour and heart. * Irish Independent *A fun-filled mystery adventure, with mythical creatures and a near-death experience, that will make you laugh and cry right to the very end. * Inis Magazine *

The build-up of amusing drama ends with the feel good exuberance of the little girl who gets her Dad to play with her all day, and loves being outside.Trade Review‘Agee’s deadpan humour finds perfect expression in this absurd and funny story about a put-upon father whose young daughter Madeleine insists they stay outside in the garden ‘all day long’ pretending to be trees. As various creatures take up residence on dad’s ‘branches’ it starts to rain, and, as night falls, Dad’s patience wears thin but Madeleine’s cheerful optimism about their joint venture sustains the fantasy. Agee conveys so much emotion through changing facial expression in the simple but bold illustrations, and the bond between father and daughter is truly heartwarming.’ Daily Mail;'Packed with playful illustrations and the author’s unique, exuberant charm, this is Agee at his entertaining and empathetic best.
