My Review
The 'Adventures On Trains' series was a huge hit with all three of our kids. This last installment, set in stunning arctic scenery, sees the conclusion of the detective saga, in which Harrison Beck and Uncle Nat climb aboard the night train to Narvik, travelling to the Arctic Circle to see the northern lights for Christmas. M.G. Leonard and Sam Sedgman undertook the train journey from Narvik themselves when researching background for the story, so the armchair adventure is true to life and will really transport children to an arctic winter wonderland. Great fun for children who are comfortable with peril, love intrigue, and enjoy a mystery to solve!
Heads Up!
These books can be read in any order or as stand alone stories - but your children are likely to want to whole set!
