Charly Holmes

is a twelve-year-old schoolgirl with a big imagination and an interest in finding out things.

These four adventures start off with an innocent walk with her dad. She imagines that all the dogs being walked are really aliens who are in control of their human handlers. Meanwhile, her dad gets in a fix, and he needs her resourcefulness to help him out.

In her other adventures, she tries out her new digital camera on a trip to Scotland with Mum and Dad where she investigates the legend of the Loch Ness monster. Then she goes on a student exchange visit to France and gets a bit too close to nature. In the final adventure, she visits London Zoo with a friend to see some of the endangered species they have discovered through a card game. Little do they know that they will somehow get caught up in the escape of a gorilla.

The Adventures of Charly Holmes is a magical journey of discovery into the world of a twelve-year-old schoolgirl with an inquiring mind and a special interest in animals and nature. The stories were written by father-and-daughter team Tim and Cathy Walker.
