Publisher's Synopsis
Book 16 finds the children exploring the middle section of Pinky Peninsula. Here they see many of the animals that you may normally find in the African savanna. This part of the island seems to be friendly and pleasant enough to settle down for a home. Yet some worrying hints begin to get passed around, even though none of the animals agree on what these hints and clues really mean. There are some scary images which may be too intense for little ones, so viewer discretion is advised.
Cautionary note: This book series was originally intended to be read to children in those precious bonding years of four and five year olds. But the books slowly and gradually become more elaborate, using harder words. This encourages a better learning experience, as you the reader get to explain certain words or phrases to them.
As the series progresses, the books become funnier, but also scarier. At many school readings, the children always seem to want me to read the scarier books. Although the monsters and pictures become scarier, they are no more scary than a Disney movie. So before you read to a young one, please flip to the end, to see if the scary monsters are too harsh for more sensitive viewers. These books will also serve to teach and delight early readers.
Thank you.
