Synopsis

AN AMAZON BESTSELLING BOOK FOR KIDS!

An entertaining story that celebrates friendship, diversity, and environmental awareness. This engaging, illustrated, middle grade chapter book is a great addition to classroom and homeschool libraries and should appeal to fans of Ramona Quimby, Jada Jones, Judy Moody, and Junie B. Jones.

Sophie's lost in the jungle, and the sun is going down... Sixth grader Sophie Washington and her friends are in for a week of adventure when her father signs them up for a spring break mission trip to Costa Rica. Her dreams of lazing on the beach under palm trees are squashed quicker than an underfoot banana once they arrive in the rainforest and are put to work, hauling buckets of water, painting and cooking. Near the hut they sleep in, the kids fight off wayward iguanas and howler monkeys, and nightly visits from a surprise “guest” make it hard for them to get much rest after their work is done. Then Sophie and friends take a wrong turn in the rainforest and things get even wilder....
