Description
Pack your suitcase for a magical adventure! Perfect for fans of The Train to Impossible Places and The Polar Bear Explorers’ Club. At the Strangeworlds Travel Agency, each suitcase transports you to a different world.
All you have to do is step inside . . . When 12-year-old Flick Hudson accidentally ends up in the Strangeworlds Travel Agency, she uncovers a fantastic secret: there are hundreds of other worlds just steps away from ours.
All you have to do to visit them is jump into the right suitcase. Then Flick gets the invitation of a lifetime: join Strangeworlds’ magical travel society and explore other worlds. But, unknown to Flick, the world at the very centre of it all, a city called Five Lights, is in danger.
Buildings and even streets are mysteriously disappearing. Once Flick realizes what’s happening she must race against time, travelling through unchartered worlds, seeking a way to fix Five Lights before it collapses into nothingness – and takes our world with it. A magical adventure for 9+ readers that will take you to whole new worlds.

A true delight.
Not just enchantingly magical and full of ebullient descriptions of conjured worlds but extraordinarily human and moving.
The moral quandaries and lessons to be learned by the young characters drive the plot in ways which make everything matter more than it just being a shimmering adventure story.
It’s a skilful tale of friendship and family and not taking anything for granted.

A fantastic adventure story of travelling in the multiverse via suitcases. A wondrous place for Flick as she learns about the excitement the Strangeworlds Travel Agency can offer to help her fulfil her desires to travel beyond her small corner of the world, but it is also a dangerous one. Something is wrong in the multiverse; people are missing, places are vanishing and not everyone effected are interested in helping others, just themselves.
