Summary

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+ listeners that will take you to whole new worlds.

Strangeworlds travel agency

First time listen had me amazed!!!!

My mum got me this audiobook to listen to in bed as I am not feeling well and I ended up feeling like I was having all of flicks adventures which has made me feel cheery. I listen to this story for 7 hours straight.

Thank you to L. D . Lapinski for writing the book and to Abigail Hardiman who narrated very well.

Best book ever!! Loved it.

A truly wonderful book, beautifully written. The different worlds remind me of Enid Blyton's the Faraway Tree which I loved as a child.

A great middle grade fantasy!

I really enjoyed listening to the story on my commute to work. The narrator was great and very easy to listen to. The different voices that the narrator used made it an interesting listen, and I loved all of the descriptions of the different worlds and characters.
