Murder at the Museum
28th October 2023
ABK’s murder mystery for children hits the perfect tone. Not too grisly, but very funny.
The plot is solid, and pitched at an ideal level for a young reader to engage and follow as well as pick up on some of the clues just before the characters.
The main character is compelling, interesting, and authentic in a way they sometimes aren’t.
The narrative is incredibly funny with a joke in seemingly every second sentence. This is where ABK shines in all his output. And there are some jokes for the grown-ups too.
All-round an excellent choice, and for me an ideal palette cleanser after a really long epic read.
