Summary |
After winning the spelling bee grand final at Sydney Opera House, India's llife is returning to normal. But then a special delivery arrives in Yungabilla, inviting her to the UK for the International Spelling Bee. But how can India go without her family by her side? The Yungabilla community might have a solution. In London, India is reunited with her friend Rajish and a much more pleasant Summer. They meet new spellers and are invited to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen. But there is skulduggery afoot, with some rather mysterious goings-on and a series of accidents that seem to be not so accidental after all. They get so dangerous, in fact, that there is talk of cancelling the competition altogether. India and her friends are determined to find out who the culprit is and get the competition back on track. There are words to be spelled, nerves to be overcome and a champion to be found. |
