The Wave Traveller

P. R. Morrison

The second nail-biting adventure featuring Archie Stringweed, The Wave Traveller is the perfect read for boys everywhere: full of adventure, heroism and action-packed, weather-lashed drama.

Playing on the pier one day Archie is amazed to see the most extraordinary sea creatures, not like anything he has ever seen before. Soon more mysteries are revealing themselves all around him and he is pitched into a dangerous battle against a new curse. Can Archie summon the energy, intelligence and perseverance needed to save himself, his family and his neighbours from a fate worse than death?

Archie is a wonderfully real and convincing character who will show young readers that courage and bravery come in many forms, not just as superhuman powers.

P. R. Morrison (London) is originally from Orkney, a place that features largely in her books. She wrote about Archie for her two sons.
