Narrated by Patrick Lawlor
Fun adventure book about kids who notice a whole lot more than the adults around them -- and the trouble they get in when they let their curiosity lead them.
Megan notices odd happenings in the zoo next door to her house, starting with monkeys traveling across the rooftops of the neighborhood. When she investigates, she disappears. That's just the prologue.
Noah, her brother, and their two best friends, Richie and Ella, are determined to figure out what happened to Megan. And when some of the animals in the zoo start acting strange -- starting with bringing the children fragments of journal entries in Megan's handwriting -- the tension and danger and clues mount. It takes some courage and determination and a lot of sneaking around and risk, but the children finally get behind the scenes and discover the Secret Zoo behind the zoo.
Then things start moving fast. So fast that most of the book's action takes place in one night. There's danger everywhere, and a big handful of narrow escapes, but nothing that will keep the kids up at night. Or impressionable adults. Guaranteed you and the children listening with you will cheer when Noah, Megan, Ella and Richie make it safely home. And ready for more adventures.
