Thank you so much to Arcturus Publishing and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.

Daisy Doolittle can talk to animals, just like her ancestors. She’s on a fancy trip in Australia with her movie star mother. But things on set aren’t going to plan, things keep getting sabotaged. With help from her new animals friends Daisy is determined to solve the mystery and save the movie.

What an amazing and fun adventure this was, I really enjoyed reading it. It was so much fun mixing a movie set, with the animals and all the drama and mystery going on. Daisy was a great protagonist she was so patient and kind with the animals, she was great at being a detective trying to solve things but also not drawing any attention to herself whilst she did it. She was really likeable and very sweet, which is really wonderful.

The mystery itself was so much fun, it wasn’t obvious, but it was wonderful reading as new things were found out and trying to piece it all together. I liked how it was solved and all was revealed. You constantly are left wondering which character did it and why they did it, so I liked how it unfolded a little at a time.

The book had great illustrations, I adored seeing all the pictures especially when Cuddles was in them, he was the cutest Koala and always made the scenes better. What wonderful addition to the story he was, readers will just adore him so much. Also let’s mod to cute Milo too, who popped up out of Daisy’s pocket regularly.

I really enjoyed this book it had so many fun enticing features to it, from a mystery to solve, to cute and funny animals and a girl that can talk to them, to a movie set and movie stars, to a great adventure in Australia. This is a great book for young readers and I know they’ll really enjoy this series.

A sweet, fast paced adventure mystery with a witty little detective called Daisy (a relative of the infamous Dr. Doolittle) and her unique ability to talk to animals.
The Koala Caper highlights everything Australiana about making a film on home soil, complete with inquisitive talking animals, Daisy and Bartlebys wits and eye for solving a mystery and bringing the guilty party to justice- bush style.
I enjoyed this short story and look forward to other books by this author.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Arcturus Publishing for the arc of this cute story.
