Notă biografică
Catherine Pelosi is a Sydney-based children's book author. When she was younger, she loved two things in equal measure: animals and writing stories. For a long time she wanted to be a zoologist. Catherine has had several jobs working with animals, including in wildlife rescue, as a dinosaur tour guide and marketing for an animal shelter in London, but her love of writing never went away. These days, she writes as often as she can. Catherine hasn't lost her love of animals, however, and you will often find one or two roaming through her stories. QUARK'S ACADEMY is Catherine's first novel; SOMETHING FOR FLEUR is her first picture book.
Recenzii
Three
young
inventors
are
delighted
to
begin
a
week-long
program
at
an
outlandish
hi-tech
science
academy.
No
parents
are
allowed,
since
they
could
distract
the
scientists
from
their
important
work.
The
week
starts
with
competition
and
suspicion
as
each
character
works
on
their
own
private
inventions.
But
there
are
also
sinister
activities
happening
at
the
academy.
A
tentative
friendship
forms
between
our
heroes
as
they
figure
out
what's
going
on
and
find
a
way
to
escape.
Quark's
Academy
is
a
rollicking
read.
The
science
is
loopy
and
exaggerated,
which
makes
the
story
entertaining
and
unpredictable.
The
plot
hinges
on
the
rich
imagination
of
children
-
a
sustainable
resource
if
ever
there
was
one.
Whether
or
not
they're
interested
in
science,
readers
between
eight
and
12
will
have
fun
with
this
book.—Adelaide
