Wonka meets Spy Kids in this deliciously dangerous mouth-watering mystery!

Readers aged 8+ will love this action-packed, sugar-fuelled adventure by Waterstones Book of the Month author Clare Povey.


A deliciously quirky mystery that will have readers craving adventure (and maybe a few sweets along the way!). In this follow-up to The Wanderdays, which was a huge hit with our Cockatoo subscribers last year, Flo and Joseph Wanderday are back and thrown into a world of sugary secrets and high-stakes thrills. With mouth-watering treats, dangerous puzzles, and a mystery that keeps unraveling, it’s a fun and fast-paced read perfect for fans of whimsical adventures and quirky characters.

When Flo and Joseph Wanderday unwrap a Midnight Treats gobstopper, they're expecting to find a sugary sweet...not a mysterious message that kickstarts the adventure of a lifetime.

"HELP! Trapped in Midnight Forest. Come before it is too late."

With adventure in their hearts and sugar in their stomachs, the Wanderdays must find the Midnight Forest, journey through its sweet-themed tricks and trials, and face their greatest threat yet: sweet-factory workers who aren't in control of their own minds...

Clare Povey is an author, avid language learner and the proud owner of four Blue Peter badges. She wanted to be a marine biologist when she was younger but found science difficult and so decided to create stories about the wonders of the natural world instead.
