** A bit disappointing (after the brilliant first Tom Scatterhorn book)**
I absolutely loved the first book, 'The Museum's Secret'. This is a follow on and unfortunately I don't think it's nearly as good. Quite apart from the story moving away from taxidermy stuffed museum animals coming to life, to rather large insects I also found it all a bit too over the top and in parts I was bored and skipped the odd paragraph to move it along - a complete contrast to book one which raced by and I had trouble putting down. However, although I wasn't keen on 'The Hidden World', I can highly recommend book one - 'The Museum's Secret'. *** 3 stars. (suitable for ages 9+) ( )
