From School Library Journal
Grade 1–4—Combining whimsical cartoons and striking photographs of animals in the bush, this title is a marvelous intermingling of adventure and science. Riley embarks on a trip with his cousin, aunt, and his Uncle Max, a conservation biologist. They track indigenous animals, learning important conservation lessons along the way. Boxes presenting significant facts about the animals appear next to their photographs. Future expeditions are promised—the story ends with the boy receiving a letter from his Uncle Max, inviting him on another trip. A kid-friendly and expansive Web site provides activities chronicling Riley's adventures. In a crowded field, this is a standout title that will appeal to teachers and students alike.—Michele Shaw, Quail Run Elementary School, San Ramon, CA
