Wendington Jones series by Daniel Dockery - Activity Pack

Prepare for the adventure of a life time with this incredible activity pack to accompany the globe-trotting, historical-adventure Wendington Jones series by Daniel Dockery. Write a travel journal, decorate your suitcase, plot a course on your map and more!

Wendington Jones has her world abruptly up-ended when her adventuring mother dies in a car crash in late 1920. Left in the care of her Grandmamma and her valet Rohan, Wendington receives a parcel in the middle of the night, seemingly from her dead mother.

It’s half of a manuscript from a book her mother was writing, and describes a mystery surrounding the mythical Tree of Life. When Wendington reads that the tree could have the power to bring her mother back to life, she throws herself into finding the remainder of the manuscript and solving her mother’s mystery. However, her initial attempts are laced with danger. Other people also seek to find the Tree of Life and Wendington has to trick, fight and talk her way out of many perilous situations. Does Wendington have what it takes to complete her mission?

Enola Holmes meets Indiana Jones in this epic story of mystery, adventure and learning to live with grief along the way.
