Today I’m sharing the latest Animal Planet Adventures book to be released through Liberty Street, called Zoo Camp Puzzle. Aimed at children aged 8-12 years, this 112 page paperback book is an activity book as well as being a story book.
Written by Gail Herman, Zoo Camp Puzzle is a chapter book following the adventures of 10-year-old twins Ava and Rosie Scott, as they visit a small zoo in Iowa called Fieldstone Zoo. it’s not any visit though, the girls will actually be staying at the zoo with their older brother Ethan, whilst their Mum writes a new book. This would be my 7 year old son’s idea of heaven, but for these city girls, they really aren’t so keen to be away from everything they know.
The girls are tasked with setting up a zoo camp for kids to enjoy during the Spring holidays.
Throughout Zoo Camp Puzzle there are factual pages about life in a zoo and the animals you might find there. We’re regular zoo and safari park adventurers, but there’s still always something new to learn.
The children are asked to check through some puzzles that the Scott’s will hand out to visitors to complete during their stays at the zoo. Not only do the children have to make sure the puzzles are right, but you, the reader get to try them out too.
The children are left at the zoo while their parents sort out a permit. As they walk around they realise that something is wrong. The zebra are no longer calm, there are strange marks on fences and some of the animals are missing! Can they track the animals down before the first holidaymakers arrive?
I won’t ruin the end of Zoo Camp Puzzle for you, but it’s an enjoyable read for children and a book with educational value too. I’ve included my Amazon Affiliate link below for this £4.99 book.
