About this deal

A phan mae tad Lizzie, sy’n actor, bron yn cael ei ladd gan siandelïer sy’n cwympo, mae’r ddwy yn gwybod nad damwain oedd hyn. A fedr Lizzie a Belle ddefnyddio’u cyfeillgarwch newydd a stopio’r darpar lofrudd? The project was developed by Jasmine Richards at Storymix, who creates ‘Pathways’ for UK BME authors and illustrators into the creation of children’s books. Once again it is up to the two girls to unveil the truth and put an end to the corruption that plagues the city.

On 11 April 1777, Ignatius Sancho while performing in Shakespeare’s play Othello got injured by the fall of a Chandelier. This seems like an accident at first, but both Lizzie and another girl at the theater Dido Belle saw a mysterious man on the balcony. This leads them to the idea that this is not an accidental fall after all but a huge conspiracy is behind this incident. One night, while attending a performance at the Drury Lane theatre, Lizzie and Belle notice something suspicious happening on stage. They decide to investigate, which sets them off on a thrilling adventure full of danger and drama. The mystery is fast-paced and suspenseful, with plenty of twists and turns to keep readers on the edge of their seats. Dido Belle was great-niece to the Earl of Mansfield, the Lord Chief Justice who was famously involved in two important cases involving slavery, the Sommersett Case and the Zong Massacre Case. Mae Lizzie Sancho’n byw gyda’i theulu mawr yn eu caffi yng nghalon Llundain brysur. Mae Dido Belle yn aeres unig sy’n byw gyda’i modryb a’i hewythr mewn plasty ger Hampstead Heath. Ond pan maen nhw’n dal llygaid ei gilydd yn y theatr un noson, mae’r ddwy wrth eu boddau o weld merch Ddu arall o’r un oed. The historical setting of 18th-century London is also a highlight of the book. The author has done an excellent job of bringing the period to life, with rich and vivid descriptions of the city, its people, and its culture. The book includes a diverse cast of characters, including real historical figures such as Dido Elizabeth Belle, who was a mixed-race heiress and lived in Kenwood House in the 1700s. The book's historical accuracy and attention to detail are impressive and will likely spark an interest in history for young readers.Drama and Danger (The Lizzie and Belle Mysteries)" by J.T. Williams is an excellent middle-grade mystery book that is sure to captivate young readers with its intriguing plot, lovable characters, and fascinating historical setting. What an amazing historical mystery, it is so thrilling and really entertaining. I’m learning so much but also finding it such an unusual and fascinating mystery. It keeps unravelling but no answers are solved throughout most of the story, it takes a long time to be able to start piecing it together and solving it all. I was unable to piece it all together myself for most of it, you’d think one thing and then another thing is brought to light. Lizzie and Belle are such great characters and I loved following their adventures- Trying to get to the bottom of a mystery centred around a potentially fatal mishap at the theatre. I can already tell it’s going to be a great series for younger readers in the future! This novel is really amazing in many aspects. First of all, I liked the 18th century setting along with mystery and rich suspense. Plus we got to see the 18th century style Showbiz industry.

The mystery of this novel is surely going to keep you on your toes. I liked how the secrets unravel one by one, and I enjoyed this thing a lot. Both Belle and Lizzie are superb detectives despite their very young age. I am begging you: if you don’t find the life of your key character fundamentally interesting, go and find someone else to write about!

If she isn’t working she’d be sewing. Close to all but top coats and mantuas were made at home by the women of the family (and the bit when she admires something because it’s hand sewn really sent my eyebrows up — what else would it be? Welded? She might notice it’s beautifully sewn.) All the children have far too much time.
