I saw this on a cart in the basement at work while i was waiting for the elevator, and the colors attracted me. because not only is it a beautifully designed book, the story itself is great, and if i could stand to be around children, i would give them this book, because it is both fun and good for them, like flintstones vitamins. How are you going to say "no" to that? you're not. The deeper Teddy and Summer get, the more the danger mounts-because when it comes to hippo homicide, the truth can't be kept in a cage!įirst, look at the cover. Is it Martin Del Gato, FunJungle's head of operations who dislikes kids and hates animals even more? Or J.J McCraken, the owner of FunJungle and Summer's father, who has more concern for the dough he's raking in than the animals in the zoo? As their investigation goes on, Teddy gets squeezed on all sides to quit asking questions-or Henry won't be the only one to turn up dead.
With the help of Summer McCraken, a fiesty girl with secrets of her own, the two narrow down their prime suspects. They want to see any trace of Henry's death disappear like yesterday's paper. Dealing with the zoo's top brass proves to be nothing but a waste of time. Even though it's claimed he died of natural causes, Teddy smells something fishy and it sure ain't the polar bear's lunch. Henry, the hippopatamus at the brand-new nationally known FunJungle, has gone belly up. 12 year old Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt Fitzroy has got a murder on his hands and trouble on his tail.
