OPINION
RECOMMENDATION
Dangerous Shopping by Kate Wallis has to be one of the
most thought-provoking books that I have ever read.
Schoolgirl China Lee forms a firm friendship with an intriguing old man,
named Mr Jupiter, who has a fascinating array of futuristic gadgets. Their
meeting is the start of an action-packed adventure to save the Earth
from destruction.
The characters are larger than life and you can't wait to see how they will
react. Mr Jupiter is as mysterious as the planet he is named after and
you keep wondering just who, or what, he is - so much so that you have
to carry on reading. It definitely deserves its shortlist for the Whitbread
book award.
