The kitchen of "Adults Only" is a scene of utter chaos, a testament to a frenzied, unexplained event. Packets and jars are strewn everywhere, half the fridge contents lie scattered on the floor, and a trail of flour snakes through the passage. This disarray sparks Jake's immediate, albeit fantastical, theories: did a magazine employee impulsively bake a cake in their room, or is there an unseen presence? His bewilderment underscores his isolated existence. This description perfectly aligns with Morris Gleitzman's hallmark style of blending childhood innocence with often unsettling realities. Jake, an only child on a secluded island, is thrust into a mystery that challenges his understanding of his world. Gleitzman excels at portraying young protagonists confronting unexpected circumstances with a mix of curiosity and apprehension, making "Adults Only" a strong contender for his best works due to its compelling mystery, relatable child protagonist, and the author's signature ability to explore complex themes through a child's eyes.
