  Agaton Sax returns to fight his biggest criminal plot yet! 
  Upon receiving a mysterious telegram during breakfast, the detective-cum-newspaper-editor soon finds himself searching to uncover the enigma around it. But it’s not just one criminal mastermind behind this confounding communique - it’s a whole cabal of them! 
  And when the super sleuth discovers that they have captured his friend and confidant Inspector Lispington, Sweden’s finest crimefighter must rescue his friend as well as put a stop to the dastardly devils and their pernicious master plan - one that has the potential to spell the end for Sweden’s most famous detective! 
  The Agaton Sax series of books were first published in Sweden, later being translated into English and printed with illustrations by much-loved artist Quentin Blake (perhaps best known for his work on the books of Roald Dahl). The English translations became immensely popular, achieving the status of the most re-issued mystery & detective series in the history of Nordic children's literature. 
  Now, for the first time, Oak Tree Books is proud to publish the entire Agaton Sax series in audio format, newly translated for the next generation and expertly narrated by Barnaby Eaton-Jones.

  The next stunning novel from Donna Barba Higuera, author of Newbery and Pura Belpré Award-winning The Last Cuentista 
   
  This is the story as it was told to me by Leandro the Mighty 
   
  For over 400 years, the world has been a barren wasteland. The few humans that survive scrape together an existence in the cruel city of Pocatel—or go it alone in the wilderness beyond, filled with wandering spirits and wyrms. They don’t last long. 
   
  13-year-old pickpocket Leandro and his sister Gabi do what they can to forge a life in Pocatel. The city does not take kindly to Cascabeles like them—the descendants of those who worked the San Joaquin Valley for generations. 
   
  When Gabi is caught stealing precious fruit from the Pocatelan elite, Leandro takes the fall. But his exile proves more than he ever could have imagined—far from a simple banishment, his consciousness is placed inside an ancient drone and left to fend on its own. But beyond the  
  walls of Pocatel lie other Alebrijes like Leandro who seek for a better world—as well as mutant monsters, wasteland pirates, a hidden oasis, and the truth. 
   
  From Donna Barba Higuera comes another novel and imaginative world to astonish us and hold a mirror to our own.
