Kingdom of Blong is the fifth in the Elastic Island Adventures children's book series for children aged 7 - 12. Kiri, Jed, and twins Emma and Ethan, discover an 'elastic' island that sends them pinging across the ocean to a variety of destinations.
When they arrive at the Kingdom of Blong, they discover that Blong the Cat is the island's missing king. Blong is greeted with a great deal of fanfare, but it looks like fame might be the ruin of him. Will Blong's relationship with Emma continue? And why do the bilbies, led by Baxter the Bilby, decide it is a good idea to live on a dangerous island ruled by cats? Will they end up on the dinner menu, or will they survive?
'As in many children's fantasy adventure books the central theme in Elastic Island Adventures: Kingdom of Blong is the battle between good and evil. It is an action-packed thrilling read. But interspersed between the scary parts are lighthearted moments. There is love in the air between two of the bilbies. I think that will make it a much more enjoyable read, especially for younger readers. While tweenies who are undergoing their own emotional changes will be able to guess what is behind Kiri's emotional outbursts and her awkward relationship with Jed.'
