Spiders from the Stars

Jack doesn't like creepy-crawlies so he isn't happy when Wanda tells him that the Spider Queen from Araknid 5 is planning to hatch a swarm of spiders to take over the Earth. Luckily, Jack has a plan - but will it work? Badger's hugely popular Alien Detective Agency series features 20 books that follow a human/alien crime-fighting duo called Jack Swift and Wanda Darkstar as they meet weird and wonderful aliens, both on other worlds and here on Earth. Their adventures progress across two sets of ten books, which can also be enjoyed as standalone novels. These reluctant readers are aimed at students with a reading age of 8-9 and an interest age of 9-14. The vibrant, witty main characters and exciting plots make Alien Detective Agency a must-have for any school library.
