AN AMAZON BESTSELLING BOOK!! Sophie's lost in the jungle, and the sun is going down... Sixth grader Sophie Washington, her good friends, Chloe and Valentina, and her parents and brother, Cole, 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 rain forest and are put to work, hauling buckets of water, painting and cooking. Near the hut they sleep in, the girls 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 jungle and things get even more wild...
I've enjoyed every one of the Sophie Washington books, and this one is no exception. Seeing her grow as a result of this rather different spring break vacation is inspiring indeed. -Readers' Favorite
The author has made the jungle come to life with brilliant descriptive writing. There are also very funny sections to the book too, especially the encounters with the monkey. Overall, a perfect book for young girls to enjoy. -Readers' Favorite
Even though this is the sixth book in the series, it is easily a stand-alone read as well. I had no problem keeping up with the story. Kudos to Tonya Duncan Ellis for creating a good, wholesome story to entertain and educate the minds of our younger generation. -Readers' Favorite
