The Pooka Problems
Finn O’Malley thinks he’s having an ordinary Tuesday… until Tuesday disappears.
One moment he’s in class; the next, time’s gone on strike. Maps whisper. Clocks chase their own hands. And somewhere between the lost property cupboard and the school office, a Department of Temporal Geography is quietly panicking.
With the help of Naomi, who prefers logic to lunacy, and a talking Pooka in a teal waistcoat who insists he’s been “accidentally paid in Thursdays,” Finn must follow the paper trail to find where the day has gone. But every answer leads to another form to fill in, and reality’s bureaucracy doesn’t like being questioned.
Can three children (well, two children and one mildly unhinged rabbit) stop the universe from shredding the calendar for good?
