Critics Review
An unputdownable adventure with heroes just as fierce as their adversaries. An original and dynamic story flooded with Mitch Johnson’s signature wit and passion for the natural world. I absolutely loved it. * Tamsin Winter, author of Jemima Small Versus the Universe *
I raced through Toxic and thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful cast of characters, rainforest jeopardy and especially the tiny frog with a BIG secret. * Ele Fountain, author of Boy 87 and Fake *
