Holly''s dad is an explorer, having amazing adventures all over the world, while Holly is stuck at home with her mum, her baby brother and the dog. Now Dad''s on a new expedition and he''ll miss her tenth birthday. She''s not happy - until she finds out that he''s planned a special treasure hunt, just for her. She has ten days to complete ten tasks - some silly, some tricky and some downright terrifying.

Maybe life at home isn''t quite so boring after all.

The first story in the ''Dadventure'' series, a perfect family story or read-alone for fans of David Baddiel and THE 13-STOREY TREEHOUSE.
