Reviews

Freddie Jones: The Mystery of the Troublesome Trees is a humorous and intriguing middle grade adventure with plenty of quirk and a whole lot of heart. One of the book’s strengths is Freddie’s vivid internal monologue – a constant stream of anxious thoughts, sharp observations and deep empathy. These traits, shaped by his neurodivergence, may feel intense to some readers, but will be recognisable and perhaps affirming to others. This thoughtful portrayal sits alongside a genuinely adventurous plot, making Freddie Jones: The Mystery of the Troublesome Trees an excellent choice for readers aged 8 and over. With the promise of more books in the series, the further adventures of Freddie Jones: The Mystery of the Troublesome Trees will be eagerly anticipated. * Books + Publishing *
