Description

Indiana Brown's parents have just returned from the Amazon jungle. But when they try out their survival techniques at Indi's school fete, Indi knows that things might be just about to go wrong.

Quick Summary

Indiana Brown's parents come back from the Amazon with a stash of jungle-survival tricks, and when they show off those skills at the school fair, Indi knows things are bound to go hilariously awry. The story mixes slapstick humor with just enough suspense to keep early readers on their toes, and the short chapters make it a quick read for kids who are just starting to read chapter books. It's perfect for kids who love a good laugh, kids who enjoy classroom mischief, or anyone who's ever wished their parents would act like real-life explorers for a day. Parents will appreciate that the danger is mild, the lessons are subtle, and the whole thing celebrates imagination over real danger. If your child likes the goofy chaos of *The Bad Guys* or the adventure-filled classroom fun of *My Weird School*, they'll probably devour this one.
