Lexie London and the mystery of the Queen's diary / Sue Ogilvie.

For children.

Lexie London is a confident, cheeky girl who has recently moved from England to Melbourne. Lexie sometimes feels as if she's moved to another planet, especially when she has to say 'thongs' instead of 'flip-flops'. One day, the librarian at Magpie Creek Primary School lets Lexie's class in on a huge secret... Many years ago, when visiting this school, the Queen Elizabeth lost her personal diary - and now she wants the class to find it! Detective Lexie is determined to get to the bottom of it all. The reward? A trip to England to personally return the diary to the Queen herself. No one is going to stop Lexie - not Jeffrey Minton, not Rachel Snoot, and especially not the evil principal Miss Broom. With the help of her friends, Lexie embarks on an epic and colourful adventure. Spooky cupboards, creepy attics, missing paintings and bizarre banana skin trails are just some of the cryptic clues. Will Lexie London crack the case and find the missing diary?
