Lian Tanner's new junior novel

Congrats to Lian Tanner on the publication of

A Clue for Clara

Illustrated by Cheryl Orsini

Published by Allen and Unwin, in paperback

For ages 8 - 12.

Clara wants to be a famous detective. She can read claw marks, find missing feathers and knows Morse code and semaphore.
There’s just one problem. She’s a small, scruffy chook, and no one takes her seriously.
Can a scruffy chicken crack a crime? Perhaps, if she’s a genius like Clara. An egg-cellent novel about a small chook and a big crime by the highly acclaimed author of ‘Ella and the Ocean’.

Delicious! Congrats again Lian!
