Critics Review

‘I loved The Wondrous Tale of Lavender Wolfe! Karen Foxlee is one of my favourite writers, and this is exquisitely written: a marvel of imagination and adventure.’ Jaclyn Moriarty, award-winning author of the Kingdoms and Empires series ‘A fabulous magical quest, strange and wonderful.’ Judith Rossell, bestselling author of The Midwatch ‘Bold, original and gloriously fantastical. A stunning book. I loved Lavender Wolfe and her adventures to bits.’ Lian Tanner, award-winning author of Spellhound ‘The Wondrous Tale of Lavender Wolfe proves again why Karen Foxlee is one of Australia’s finest writers for children. Made with a teaspoon of skullduggery, a hearty dollop of swashbuckling and a barrelful of heart, this magical tale will make any young landlubber long for adventure at sea. Shiver me timbers, this was good.’ Reece Carter, bestselling author of A Girl Called Corpse
