Mikki and Me and the Out-of-Tune Tree Summary

Mikki and Me and the Out-of-Tune Tree by Marion Roberts

Eleven-year-old Alberta Bracken is having a terrible summer. After a bike-riding accident, caused by the local bully, her arm's in a cast so she can't do her most favourite holiday activity: boogie boarding at the local beach. And her little sister Clementine is EXTREMELY ANNOYING.

To make matters worse, her mum (bestselling author of Tammy Bracken's Guide to Modern Manners) has sent her dad packing - after discovering his behaviour has been far from...well-mannered.

So when budding filmmaker Mikki Watanabe suggests they start a YouTube channel about the secret life of trees - Alberta is ALL IN. And when they discover their trees are earmarked for removal by the local council it's suddenly a race against time to save them.

Funny, warm and a little offbeat, this highly entertaining novel hits all the right notes for middle-fiction readers.

Mikki and Me and the Out-of-Tune Tree Reviews

'Sweet and delightful with a pleasingly wacky edge. Lovely characters, especially the fierce little sister Clementine, great relatable content - how to use YouTube for good and not evil - and forest-bathing! I particularly like the natural science elements; trees communicating and making music - wonderful big-picture stuff.' - Jennifer Castles
