About Maisie vs Antarctica

When Maisie’s dad reluctantly agrees to bring her along on his research trip to Antarctica, Maisie can’t believe her luck – finally, a chance to do something that isn’t completely boring! Anticipating ice dragons, frost warriors and talking snowmen, Maisie embarks on the long journey with her safety-conscious dad. But when their tiny plane crashes and leaves them stranded on the ice fields on the edge of Antarctica, Maisie realises that perhaps this place isn’t exactly what she expected. There are abandoned igloos, penguin traffic jams, and leopard seals that almost eat her for lunch. More importantly than that, though, is the fact that something very strange is happening to the fabric of time… and Maisie’s dad could be right in the middle of it.

Maisie vs Antarctica is a sweet and funny adventure that brings you to the edge of your seat and has you chuckling on the way. Young readers will appreciate the fast-paced action, twists and turns, and the voice of headstrong and lovable Maisie. This is the perfect book to read tucked away from any snow (or leopard seals) outside!
