The Incredible Adventures of Casper the Cat Who Got Lost in Africa: Book 6: The Ostriches - Paperback

by Jennifer Ussi (Author), Lekshmi Bose (Illustrator), Naomi Green (Editor)

Book 5 in The Incredible Adventures of Casper the Cat Who Got Lost in Africa takes readers deeper into the wild as our brave little city cat crosses paths with Africa's fiercest-and most misunderstood-creatures: the lions.

After leaving the noisy baboons behind, Casper wakes up beneath a tree full of chattering guinea fowl, only to stumble straight into the path of two enormous lions. But Hasani and Harry aren't quite what she expected. Between their royal-sized egos, jump-scares, and thunderous laughs, Casper soon discovers that being king of the jungle comes with its own set of problems-especially when poachers return to the savannah.

Joined by an army of surprising new allies-spiders, scorpions, and even antlions-Casper helps the pride turn the hunters into the hunted, proving once again that courage doesn't always come with claws and fangs.

Perfect for readers ages 5-10, The Lions is a beautifully illustrated chapter book packed with:

-Exciting animal adventures and laugh-out-loud surprises

-Big-hearted themes of courage, teamwork, and protecting others

-Real wildlife facts woven seamlessly into the story

Written by award-winning filmmaker Jennifer Ussi and illustrated by Lekshmi Bose, this thrilling 7,000-word tale roars with adventure, humor, and heart-reminding readers that even the smallest voice can make a mighty difference.
