Two boys and a microraptor. A dark, mysterious forest.

And a squad of army-trained mercenaries searching for them. What

could possibly go wrong?

Falling behind their classmates on a school trip to the Alps,

Finn and Milo stumble upon an egg buried in ice. 

Later that night it hatches and a 65-million-year-old baby is

born: Arty is a microraptor brought back from extinction.

But keeping her safe proves harder. Wicked scientists will do

anything to get their hands on her, and soon Finn and Milo must run

for their lives …

The first in an thrilling new series of all-action environmental

adventures – with added dinosaurs!

A super-cool debut voice in middle-grade; think Jurassic

Park meets Wimpy Kid with a dash of Alex

Rider

Packed full of humour, action and adventure – with

survival skills and a dinosaur friend called Arty!

Features brilliantly charming illustrations from Euan

Cook throughout

PRAISE FOR MISSION: MICRORAPTOR:

'. . . brace yourselves for a bright new comedy voice. . .
