Incredible Rescue Mission by Nasaya Mafaridik, Zanib Mian
5.0
The third in the ‘Planet Omar’ series finds Omar and his friends, Daniel and Charlie, in dire straits when their favourite teacher, Mrs. Hutchinson mysteriously abandons her job and is replaced by the rather dreadful Mrs. Crankshaw who quickly bans smiling from the classroom.
Since no adult will tell Omar where Mrs. Hutchinson is, the three boys take it upon themselves to find out; suddenly convinced that the only reasonable answer is that she has been abducted by aliens. So begins the quest for the missing teacher which sees us follow Omar back to his ancestral home of Pakistan and a surprise encounter.
Once again, Mian’s wholesome energy thrums off the page. The book is an easy yet enjoyable read with fizzing fonts and engaging illustrations by Mafaridik.*
