Alice-Miranda Surfing Safari!
Australia is renowned for its golden beaches and world class surfing, so when one of Alice-Miranda’s biggest fans (and a girl who has become very special to me) asked if she could use an image of Alice-Miranda on her new surfboard, well I thought, how cool would that be! Justine’s dad, Ian, has a surf decal company so that means he does all the jazzy artwork on surfboards, customising them for companies and creating amazing one off boards. His work is fabulous and I knew he would make this the coolest surfboard on the coast!
He also has the biggest printer I’ve ever seen so that he can get the images big enough for the boards. The image below left is the print out before it goes on the board.
So now, Justine has the one and only Alice-Miranda surfboard in existence and how great does it look. Here are some photos of the board, Justine and me and even better, Justine surfing on the Sunshine Coast. I’ve only tried surfing once and was a complete failure at it but as you can see, Justine is fantastic!
Yasmin
Wow that’s cool.
Jacqueline Harvey
Yes, I think so too!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Keealni
Awesome!!!!
Koco
She is so lucky. I wish I had that board. I love your books Jacqueline Harvey I canβt wait for number 20. I wonder what it will be about??

Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Koco,
Yes, I agree Juzzy is very lucky! Thank you for your kind words – Book 20 is set in Egypt. π
Happy reading,
Jacqueline
JoKate
Wow that is the best thing ever….what a lucky girl and what a great Dad!
Jacqueline Harvey
Isn’t it fabulous and yes, her dad is a great guy!
Best wishes,

Sienna
Hi Jacqueline,
I just wanted to say that I was really surprised to hear that in book 13 of Alice Miranda, that they got a cavoodle called fudge because I have a cavoodle called fudge!! I was laughing a lot when I read that!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Sienna,
What a fabulous name for a cavoodle :)!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sabine
Hi so I really wanted a dog before I started reading Alice Miranda and then I found a breed called a cavoodle which I fell in love with and then after reading the books I knew I absolutely had to name my cavoodle fudge
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Sabine,
Yes, Cavoodles are very cute!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sophie
Hi Jaqueline,
I have a cavoodle too, and when she was a puppy she looked really really really similar to fudge on the cover of Alice-Miranda to the rescue. Her fur has gotten lighter now, and her name is Tiger Lily.
From Sophie!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Sophie,
That’s so cute, I really love cavoodles they are very cute and the name Tiger Lily is gorgeous! π
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sophie
Also do you remember meeting me and my friend Sarah at the St Ives shopping center in Sydney for a book signing?
Sophie

Jacqueline Harvey
Thanks Ava – there are already 11 more books for you to read in the series after Alice-Miranda at Sea. I’m writing up to Book 18 at the moment but I will probably write even more than that.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Lucy

Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Brydy,
Yes, it is amazing, isn’t it! The only way to learn something new is to try; although Justine has been surfing since she was small:). Hope that you continue to enjoy the stories.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Shari
Halle is that you?
Sarah&Stella
What a fantastic surfboard! I wish I had one too!!!!!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Stella and Sarah,
I agree, it is fantastic. Unfortunately, (at the moment) just a one off for a lucky (and very special) little girl with a lovely Dad!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sophie

sav
hey i was wondering what book 18 will be called since i am already up to book 12. i am so hooked i have already read 4 of the books this year.
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Sav,
I haven’t decided on the title for Book 18…but Book 16 will be Alice-Miranda in Hollywood.
Glad that you are enjoying them!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Miya
Wow. That’s so cool! I would want an Alice-Miranda surfboard too, but i can’t surf οΌοΌ
Jacqueline Harvey
Sorry Miya,
At this stage, the surfboard is a one off for a lucky girl, with a great Dad (who is in the business of surfboards :). Perhaps you could do some surfing lessons….
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Julia
Dear Jacqueline,
That is amazing i love surfing.I am about to read Alice Miranda holds the Key i am very exited.
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Julia,
Hope you enjoy reading Alice-Miranda Holds the Key.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Kiera
WOW!!!!!!! That looks sooo cool! I wish I had one but I can’t surf and I have never been to Australia. I wish I could do a lot more things than I can do at the moment! I JUST WISH.
Kiera
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Keira,
Yes, it is pretty cool, isn’t it! Lots of time to learn to surf and to travel- I had my first overseas trip when I was 24 (travelling to Japan with a group of Year 5 students). Hope you get to travel to Australia one day- it IS a pretty cool place.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sophie
Hi Jacqueline Harvey I am a big fan and can’t wait for the 16th book you are really popular at our school with the girls
Jacqueline Harvey
Thanks Sophie
It’s wonderful that you and your friends are so interested and engaged with the stories.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sophie
Alice-Miranda holds the key and Alice Miranda in China the best ever
No offence but in an earlier comment you said book 15 would be called Alice-Miranda in Hollywood
Jacqueline Harvey
Thanks Sophie,
Fixed now!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Denae
Dear Jacqueline,
What amazing surfboard!! (and dad π ) maybe there should be an Alice-Miranda in Hawaii?! Will you be coming to Tasmania this year?? Congratulations on being on breakfast television! All the best!
Love from
Denae. xoxo
PS. When will CR and the wedding wobbles be out?
PPS. I am looking forward to reading AM holds the key!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Denae,
Alice-Miranda in Hawaii does sound like fun I think! Clementine Rose and the Wedding Wobbles will be ou 1 April. Hope you enjoy AM Holds the Key. I’m not sure when I’ll be in Tasmania next but I hope it will be later in the year.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline xx
Denae
Dear Jacqueline,
Wow! That’s an awesome surfboard!!! Congratulations on being on Breakfast television – I would have been so nervous though =) Are you coming to Tasmania this year? I just read CR and the Paris puzzle. It was such a heart-warming story, like a yummy hot chocolate that you want it to last forever. You are the best author ever.
Love from your biggest fan in the universe,
Denae. xoxo
Jacqueline Harvey
So glad you liked Paris Puzzle Denae. Wait until you read Wedding Wobbles – I spent a few times in tears over that one – I just love Clemmie so much.
Thanks for writing,
Jacqueline xxxx
Bethany Callow
Dear Jacqueline,
Hi! I think that surf board is just so awesome. I am so jealous of Justine- the girl who owns it.
I love your books so much especially Alice-Miranda books. I think my favourite one is Alice-Miranda at Camp and Alice-Miranda at School. I have just submitted my entry in the CHILD competition. I hope you like it.
You have inspired my writing and I now write alot more than I used to. Most people say I have a natural talent.
Bye!
From one of your biggest fans
Bethany
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Bethany,
Yes, the surfboard is awesome and Justine is lucky that her lovely Dad made it for her. I’m sure that you are lucky in many different ways!
It is wonderful that you are enjoying the stories and that reading them has inspired you to write- best of luck for the CHILD magazine competition.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Maxine Fan
Hi Jacqueline
I love your Alice Miranda series. I recently entered in the CHILD magazine writing competition. I was just wondering when you recieve the results for the writing.Thank you for reading this text.
Bye!
From Maxine
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Maxine,
The results will be announced in the April edition of Child Magazine and also on my website.
Best wishes and best of luck,
Jacqueline
Lyra
Dear Ms Harvey
Oh my goodness! That’s amazing! Such a dedicated young girl with a truly amazing father! Almost makes me wish I had one! (Unfortunately, balance and I do not mix so surfing is a big no no).
On another note, I was reading through the comments – as I do – and I saw that the next book in the series will be Alice-Miranda in Hollywood? I immediately got so excited! I just finished Alice-Miranda Holds The Key (which was fantastic by the way) and the thought of the whole gang going to Hollywood made me very bouncy! I know the last book barely came out but I so badly want to make predictions! Like Lawrence’s involvement! It’s Hollywood, he’s a movie star, boom! They mix!
Also Lawrence means Lucas and Lucas is my favourite male character. His unrelenting sarcasm means so much to me, ma’am, I don’t think you understand π He only cracks a joke (a purposeful one at least, everything he says makes me laugh honestly) once a book, or every few books but I look forward to each and every one. Maybe I have too much of a bond to a fictional character but… I can’t help it! It made me a tad bit sad when I saw that he, Sep and Jacinta weren’t in Holds The Key, because I’ve grown so close to them mentally in the past fifteen books, but I also realize their involvement wasn’t necessary and I absolutely adored the book anyway.
I need to say something about our darling heroine actually; she is someone I aspire to be. Nevermind that she is nine years old and I am much older, her morals and ethics really make me wish I were like her; I suppose she’s like a goal for me to reach? She’s so understanding and forgiving and I just love her so much and I’m really glad she’s the heroine because nobody else would fit π I really wanted to say something about Aice-Miranda because, I’ve been reading your blogs for awhile now and I’ve noticed that so much love goes to the other characters, but not our main girl! I’ve seen so, so many regarding Jacinta (oh my goodness I love Jacinta, and I would probably go on and on about how beautiful and amazing and ukgvsdhrjbcfdkj she is but I feel like you might be a bit sick of hearing of her, haha) so I thought hey, let’s show Jacqueline that her main character is well-loved too π
I realize this has gone very off-topic.. I apologise for that π I hope you have a wonderful day and forgive my ramblings about these amazing characters you’ve created. Blesses.
~Lyra
Jacqueline Harvey
Wow, Lyra
Thanks for your post and the interest, insight and time that you have put into your comments! I am surprised and humbled that the stories evoke such interest and that the irrepressible little girl with the chocolate curls, who some say, is “the best version of yourself that you want to be”, is inspiring some of the children, who inspire me to write the stories!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Madei
This looks so cool! I went to a tea about your books a few years ago, and bought your fifth Alice-Miranda book, which you then signed for me. I read it and I loved it. That year I got a box set of some of the first books in the series, and since then I’ve collected them, which means a lot of begging my parents whenever a new one comes out. I’ve just read the fifteenth book and I loved it. Who is Millie’s cousin? Is it going to be revealed at a later date? In March there will be the Newcastle writer’s festival and I get to go to the one you’re teaching! I CAN’T WAIT! Alice-Miranda in Hollywood sounds so cool! I can’t wait to read it!
Madei
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Madei
Thank you so much,, you are too kind! I’m glad that you are enjoying the stories- and the characters :). You will just have to keep reading to discover who Millie’s cousin is……..
I’m looking forward to the Newcastle Writers’ Festival, too- there are such a talented group of writers coming along. I’ll see you there :)!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Hattie
Dear Jacqueline Harvey
That’s so cool!
I wish I had an alice miranda surf board too.
Those girls look like pretty good surfers out on those waves!!!
Jacqueline Harvey
Justine is a great surfer – I wish I could do it too!
Best wishes,

nasara
Hi Jacqueline
I’m a girl who is 12 years old and in high school ,Even thought I’m in high school i still love ,love, love, your books! i was just wondering what is our latest book, and when is the next one coming out?
Thanks
Nasara:)
nasara
And also if you are able to make a movie related on thee book will you do it?Because that will be amazing!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Nasara,
It will be amazing and I’m still so excited, as the Alice-Miranda stories are currently “in development” to be made into an animated TV series. If all goes to plan, the series will be seen on our screens in 2018. I will updated any details via a blog post as soon as I am able to.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Nasara,
I’m so glad that you are enjoying the stories- there are lots of fans who love the stories and are much older than you are. Even some adults :)!
The latest book in the Alice-Miranda series is Alice-Miranda Holds the Key, which was released in February. I am just about to start writing Alice-Miranda in Hollywood, after doing much research during my recent trip to the US over the Christmas break. Alice-Miranda in Hollywood is due for release on 1 September 2017.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Enya
Hi Ms Harvey,
I love the surfboard. I wish I had one.
In your 16th Alice Miranda book how old will Jacinta be? Also when does Alice Miranda turn 10?
Also in Alice Miranda holds the key who was Millie’s cousin? Is it either Madagascar or Francesca?
charlotte and taylah
hi my best friend and I are totally obsessed with Alice-Miranda and the enchanting romance between Jacinta and Lucas. we are hoping for another author talk at any of the Redlands city library’s. we are also quite concerned with there being no “lucinta romance” in book 15. WE NEED AN UPDATE !!!!!!
from the co-presidents of your fan club,
taylah and charlotte
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Charlotte and Taylah,
Thank you; you are too kind! Sadly, Lucas does not make an appearance in Alice-Miranda Holds the Key; but he will be in the cast when the friends travel to Hollywood in Book 16! You will have to keep reading, won’t you :)!
I am touring in Queensland at the moment- and have some public events around Noosa and Bundaberg- it’s a bit far for you; but keep an eye on the website.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Rosie
Hi Jacqueline,
I collected all the Alice Miranda books a few years ago when I was younger, and because I’m home sick today, I thought I would pull one out and re read it hehe. Still love it as much as when I was younger β€οΈοΈ
From Rosie
Miranda
Nice I only have one! Called Alice-Miranda in the Alps
Lilly
I love surfing.But we never get to surf because my surfboard broke.When will you be coming to Tasmania next.
Emma howes
That’s awesome,
I can’t surf but if I could that would be my number one board!
Jacqueline Harvey
Mine too!
Miranda
Dear Jaqueline Harvey,
I have every book of Alice-Miranda and you inspire me to become a writer. I also think book 19 could be about Alice-Miranda going into space!
also what does website mean at the bottom?!
Jacqueline Harvey
I’m not sure what you mean Miranda about website at the bottom. I’ll have to have a fish around. Space is an interesting idea.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sav
Hey Jacqueline
I was reading AM book 12 when I started to think if Jacinta has any cousins or Millie since it would make the books more dramatic if Lucas falls in love with Jacinta older cousin (if she has one)
P.s I love ur books
Jacqueline Harvey
Interesting ideas that’s for sure! I will give that some thought.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Miranda
Awesome Alice-Miranda surfboard!. Because I have Miranda as my first name !.
Jacqueline Harvey
And it’s a fabulous name for sure!
taylah and charlotte
dear Ms Harvey
This is Charlotte and Taylah again! We NEED more Jacinta and Lucas romance!
Also why can’t you come to Brisbane? It is my birthday(Taylah) on Monday 13 march and I wish I could meet you! this is Charlotte and you met me a few years ago!
bye!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Taylah and Charlotte,
I’m sorry I couldn’t stay in Brisbane for more than a day last week as I had to meet kids further up north and go to Bundaberg. I will be back in Brisbane later in the year so hopefully we can meet then. There will be more about Jacinta and Lucas in Alice-Miranda in Hollywood – and wait until you get to read my new series – there are some sweet fledgling romances there too!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sarah
Hi Jacqueline
My friend showed me these books now I’m hooked!
You are such a fantastic author, I wish I could write like you.
Thanks for writing these fantastic novels for fans around the world to enjoy!
Thanks again,
Sarah
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Sarah,
You are too kind- I’m thrilled that you are enjoying the stories! I think that my key to being able to write, is to read, read, and read some more! It seems that you already have that love for reading.
Happy reading!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Jacqueline Harvey
Thank you for your kind words, Sarah!
I am so pleased that you are enjoying the stories!
Best wishes,

Kiera
The Alice-Mirand books are SO COOL.
Jacqueline Harvey
Thanks Kiera – I’m busy writing Alice-Miranda in Hollywood at the moment!
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Kiera
My school library is sooo evil it has no Clementine Rose books and only has Alice-Miranda books 1,2,3,4,11 and 12.
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Kiera,
Perhaps you could ask your librarian if she or he can get them in. They are on the Premier’s reading challenge in most states so they would be a good resource to have and I know that the kids at your school would enjoy them. Where do you go to school? Perhaps email me the details jacqueline@jacquelineharvey.com.au and I can see what I can do to help.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Grace von Meding
Hi,
I’ve never tried surfing before but me and my dad want to. I want a Alice-Miranda surf board!
From Grace.
Jacqueline Harvey
It’s a great board isn’t it! I’ve only ever tried surfing once and I was hopeless at it but you never know, I might try again one day.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Rose
Hi,
i was wondering how old all of the characters are, in Alice Miranda in Scotland? I’m so disappointed that you came to my primary school in Sydney to meet Miss Roussos; the sister of my best friend, and i wasn’t able to see you, even though my sister did.
can you do a book where she comes to Australia, or goes on a tour of sydney, and some other cities, and then goes into the outback?
thanks
Rose xxoo
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Rose,
That’s a pity you weren’t able to come to the launch event with Sophie. She’s a sweet girl. I’m definitely thinking about a story in Australia. Have you read Kensy and Max yet? They are likely to come to Australia soon. The characters are all getting older (of course) AM is now 10 and a bit, Millie is 13 and Jacinta and Lucas are around 14.
Hope to meet you somewhere soon.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Mya
Hi,
Do you know what your going to call Alice Miranda 18 and when it comes out?
Do you remember signing my book at Celebration of Literature at Somerset college because I do
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Mya,
Not sure about the title for the next book and yes I remember meeting you at Somerset and signing your book. Have a great holiday.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Bethany
Hi Jacqueline,
What will the next Alice-Miranda book be about?
I LOVE Alice-Miranda books!
Also, I am dying for Alice-Miranda to come to Australia
From one of your biggest fans
Bethany
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Bethany,
The next book is set back at school and there is a very dramatic incident in the village followed by more strange things. Alice-Miranda will of course unravel what’s going on.
Thanks for being a fan,
Jacqueline
Marvel
Hi Jacqueline,
Yes, your Book 18 was amazing! As I have written in an earlier post, my favourite book is the 17th. WIll a Book 19 be coming out and when will it be coming out? Thanks! Also what the name of that book…
Jacqueline Harvey
Glad you enjoyed it and yes there will be a book 19 and 20 at least π
Zari Rose
Hi Jaqueline,
You are such an amazing person and you are a author of the gods! I was just wondering about book 18. In the book it states that Lucas has a new step-dad, but I though Lawrence Ridley was already his dad. I might have got muddled up, but Iβm extra excited for the next book! Sorry if I just wasted your time but thank you anyway for the extraordinary and crazy good books!
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Zari,
Thank you for your kind words. Lucas’s mum gets remarried and that’s how he has a new stepdad. Have you seen the movie yet, Alice-Miranda Friends Forever? It’s on at the cinemas around Australia at the moment but only for a few more days. I will be going to the Blacktown Drive In this weekend to watch a special pyjama party screening.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Emma
Hi Jacqueline!
If you haven’t yet decided on what your idea will be for book 19 or 20, maybe you could make it about Alice-Miranda and her friends going to Africa, like a safari or something. Or maybe she went to Hawaii, or they go to Australia! Or Sydney to watch something at the opera house. Or how about Winchersterfield Downsfordale doing another another play with Fayle, like when Lucas said in book 16, that Mr Lipp wanted to do Romeo and Juliet. My favourite character is Jacinta. She is hilarious when she doesn’t mean it, and I’m sure is every bit amazing you have described her at not just gymnastics, but probably everything. Also I think Lucas and Jacinta are better together. They have bonded strongly and become so close close over the years since book 2 at Highton Hall. Caprice, on the other hand, is as horrid as Alethea Goldsworthy and mentioned in book 14 she hated Felicity Fang even though they were the same. I’m probably sure that she doesn’t care about other people unless she is humiliating them. She is my least fav character: selfish, rude, annoying, grumpy when annoyed and a really big attention seeker. Such a drama queen. I feel like there is a better side of her but she does’nt know it yet. (sorry if this is too much! Not really a comment anymore, I think)
BTW I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE your books. They are so deep and mysterious and detailed… they are the best books in the entire history of mankind!!!!!!!!!! I am your biggest ever fan Jacqueline!!!! XD
From Emma! π
Jacqueline Harvey
Thanks Emma – I love that you are so invested and you know the characters inside out! I agree that Caprice is not a nice girl at all. Hopefully she will change for the better but who knows! I’m about to start writing Alice-Miranda in the Outback. It will have lots of adventure and mystery as always.
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Sophie
Hello!
I love your books soooooo much, and I cannot wait for Alice-Miranda in the outback to come out! I have a suggestion for book 20:
Maybe Alice-Miranda and all of the child cast should get to go to the movie premiere of Nellie Williams: the life and times of a frontier woman? Then maybe Caprice becomes a better person, and is offered another acting job? Just some suggestions. Also, that surfboard is awesome. She is so lucky! I think you should make some other Alice-Miranda merchandise. also, what casting website did you use for the Alice-Miranda movie? I really want to become an actress, and I need places to find acting jobs. I hope there is also another kensy and Max book.
Bye-Bye!!! π
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Sophie, thanks for the suggestion. Kensy and Max: Freefall has just been released and another one will be out later this year. Yes, Juzzy is very lucky to have that surfboard – as far as I know it is the only Alice-Miranda surfboard in the world! The cast for the Alice-Miranda movie has already been selected, sorry.
Kiara
Hi!
How many Alice-Miranda books are you going to write? I have up to 18 and Iβd love it if you wrote over 20 =)
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Kiara,
Alice-Miranda 20 will be out in June 2021!
Happy Reading,
Jacqueline π
Abigail
Hi Jacqueline Harvey,
What’s the title of book number twenty?
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Abigail,

Happy reading,

Kayley M
Ms Harvey,
Are we allowed to know what AM no 20 is about?? I LOVEE!!! all of your books (cr, am and k&m) and can’t wait to see how many books you will publish.
Thanks, Kayley
P.S
i just would like to say that i LOVE!! the design for the K&M no 7.
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Kayley,
Book 20 is Alice-Miranda in Egypt, it will be released on the 1st of June – I hope you enjoy it once you get your hands on a copy!
I agree, I love the cover for Kensy and Max: Take Down as well, I’m so lucky to have such an amazing team working on the covers of my books. π
Happy reading,
Jacqueline
Abigail
I love your books! Alice-Miranda’s are my favourites
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Abigail,
I’m thrilled to hear that you love my books, especially the Alice-Miranda series. π
Best wishes,

Amber
I canβt wait for number 20 I finished all the others in lockdown I am a big fan of your books can wait to read number 20. That girls really lucky hope she has fun surfing,
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Amber,
There are still a few months to go until Alice Miranda in Egypt will be released but I hope you enjoy the read once you get your hands on a copy! Although lockdown had negatives, there were also lots of positives – I enjoyed having time to read more, but missed doing my events as I enjoy meeting my readers.
Yes, Juzzy sure is lucky! I think she is the only person to have this amazing surfboard.
Happy reading,
Jacqueline π
Laelah
Hello!
I’ve been a huge fan of the Alice-Miranda books since I was six, and now I am twelve and still re-reading them all over again! I am hoping that Alice-Miranda does go over 20 books because it would be so sad once it ends π Also, just some ideas for book twenty or future books (if you do continue writing them) perhaps you could base it off Christmas since you haven’t done any where they celebrate christmas, or maybe write is based off her but 15 years later when they’re all grown up, (also, hoping that Caprice is a bit nicer in book 20!). I know you probably can’t include these because you’re writing it already, but I can’t wait for Alice-Miranda’s next adventure in June! How exciting.
Thanks very much,
Laelah
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Laelah,
Thank you for your kind message! You have been reading the Alice-Miranda series for quite some time now, thank you for being part of the journey.
That is a great idea, I love hearing about what my readers want to happen in a plot/setting. In the future, I think it would be fun to write about Alice-Miranda when she and her friends are a bit older…
I hope you enjoy Alice-Miranda in Egypt once you get your hands on a copy in June. π
Best wishes,
Jacqueline
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Lara,
Alice-Miranda in Egypt (book 20) will be released on the 1st of July this year!
I hope one day I will be able to meet you as well, I love meeting my readers (it’s one of my favourite parts of my job). π
Happy reading,
Jacqueline
Chloe
Hi Jacqueline,
I love your Alice Miranda books and I was wondering if you would write some more books to the series? I would be delighted if you would write about Singapore and other places in Asia.
Jacqueline Harvey
Hi Chloe,
Thank you for the suggestion! I’m currently taking a break from writing the Alice-Miranda series, but you never know what the future holds…
Have you read Kensy and Max: Take Down? That is set in Singapore. π
Happy reading,
Jacqueline

Can’t wait for book 21!!
